A nanomaterial equation of state has been combined with Grüneisen approximation in present work to investigate the influence of high pressure on phonon density of state function of C60 through evaluating variations of lattice vibration frequencies and variation of mode density. Furthermore, the effect of high pressure on Debye temperature has been determined by using a formula of volume dependence of Debye temperature. Volume compression ratio in C60 has been computed, using a nanomaterial equation of state. Expressions of pressure dependence of phonon density of state and Debye temperature have been combined with volume compression ratio value. The evaluated result of volume compression ratio and phonon density of state have been compared with the experimental observations and good agreement can be seen.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
