ABSTRACT The specific heat at constant pressure as a function of temperature (c vs T) in solid Cl and Br is analyzed by recourse to a method developPin a companion pap&. Valugs for the lattice frequencies, their temper ature dependence6 and the Debye temperature (T ) have been determined for both halogens. Activation energies correspondi!?gto lattice vacancy forms tion were determined in both cases. INTRODUCTION Although Cp
vs
T has been measured in solid Cl2 and Br2 (1,2), a dy-
namical analysis like that proposed by Martin (3)
has not been carried
out in any of these halogens. They are isomorphous, crystsllizing in a face centred orthorombic lattice, spatial group Cmca (D$), ecules per primitive unit cell (4,5),
with two mol-
therefore there are twelve normal
modes of vibration: nine optic and three acoustic. The optic modes may be divided into four librational, three translational and two internal stretching. The zone center eigenvectors for the optic modes are shown in Fig. 1 along with their symmetry species. Mode Au is both Raman end InfraRed inactive. Collected data on the frequencies of the librational modes are shown in Fig. 2 (6-12). As may be seen a linear temperature dependence seems reasonable, and the parameters corresponding to the straight lines, written in the form Wx=W,x(l-CxT), are given in Table 1 (the notation used throughout this paper is that used in Ref. 3). Mode B2g in Cl2 has not been detected by Raman and Infra-Red spectroscopies, and the result shown in Fig. 2 has been deduced by analyzing the temperature dependence of the chlorine Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance transition frequency (13). This analysis also made possible the assignment of the various librational frequencies to their symmetry species, in agreement with Ref. 9. In order to evaluate Cp vs T as indicated in Ref. 3 it is necessary to know the temperature dependence of the frequencies for all the modes. On the basis of the results shown in Fig. 2 it seems reasonable to adopt a linear tempcratura dependence for all the remaining made frequencies in eluding the acoustic modes since these are essentially translatory. The next question is what particular linear dependence is to be chosen for the modes not included in Fig. 2. Since experimental information is lacking, Proceedingsof ICTA 85, Bratislava

and in order to introduce as few parameters to be adjusted as possible, we make a choice based on the following observation on the temporature dependence of the librational mode frequencies in Cl2 and Br2: from Fig. 2 and the values on Table 1 we find reasonable to write Wx=Wox(l-F Wax T), where P has different values for the librational and translational modes and for each of the halogens under investigation in this work. The internal stretching mode frequeliciesare considered temperature independent. The frequencies of the modes B2u and Blu have been given the above form forcing the straight line to go through the experimental values at liquid nitrogen temperatures (6)j the acoustic and Au modes were given the above form. Therefore, the paraneters to be fitted are F, WoAu
and TD, where TD
is the Debye temperature. At high temperatures an additional contribution was found necessary to be taken into account, which is attributed to vacancy formation. The term to be added to Eq. 4 in Ref. 3 is (14): Acp

DISCUSSION
Fitting, as indicated above, by means of a non-linear least-squares procedure (16) the values for the parameters F, Woiu, TU and Ef shown in Table 1 are obtained. Fig. 3 shows the results achieved, and as may be seen the fits are excellent. Curve 1 corresponds to the specific heat
