Summary
Measurements of phonon dispersion curves for non-metallic crystals that have been published since 1984 and some that have been published during 1979–1983 are tabulated.
A compilation of the measured phonon dispersion curves, with references, for a number of metals is given by Willis and Pryor (1975, p 226). A similar compilation for insulators is given by Bilz and Kress (1979). The following tables update the compilation of phonon dispersion curves measured in non-metallic crystals. The references from 1984 have been extracted by searching through computer databases, but given that the searches are based on a choice of keywords it cannot be guaranteed that the list is exhaustive.
Sadly a large number of measured dispersion curves never get as far as publication! However, each neutron scattering institute publishes an annual report, which often contains such unpublished data. Alternative sources of dispersion curves are conference proceedings.
The references have been grouped under three headings: molecular crystals, silicates, and ionic crystals.
