UT theoretical chemistry code forum

Hi, I'm having a fundamental question here. Please correct me if I'm wrong. D=(a^2)*(Equilibrium concentration of vacancies)*(defect jump Rate). Empirically it is given as D = Do * exp (-Q/KbT) And all the temperature independent terms are clubbed together into Do. Priya, I think the exp(dS/Kb) that...

Oh, I got it. Thank you very much.

However, two different definitions of wavenumbers are there.
How is it defined here? Is it 1/wavelength, or (2*pi)/wavelength ?

Hi,

I was just wondering why is the Unit of frequencies obtained from the DynMat calculations in cm ^-1?
Shouldn't it be in units of time ^-1, ie second ^-1 or Hz ?

Thanks..
