The principlesof lattice dynamicsare briefly reviewedin this paper, and from theseprinciples a simple, generallyapplicable lattice vibrational spectrumis proposedfor minerals.The spectrumcan be usedto calculatethe thermodynamicfunctions in the harmonic approximation. The model proposedis consistent with lattice dynamicsand is sufficientlydetailed in its assumptionsabout the distribution of modesthat the thermodynamicfunctions are closelyspecified. The primitive unit cell, containings atoms,is chosenas the fundamental vibrating unit; it has 3s degrees of freedom, three of which are acoustic modes. Anisotropy of thesemodes is includedby use of anisotropicshear velocitiesfor the two shear branches: dispersionis includedby useof a sinusoidaldispersion relation betweenfrequency and wavevector for all three acousticbranches. Optic modes,which comprise3s - 3 degreesof freedom, are representedby a uniform continuum,except for 'intramolecular' stretchingmodes (such as Si-O stretchingmodes) which can be enumeratedand identified as being isolated from the optic continuum. Parametersfor the model are obtained from elasticand spectroscopicdata; the model is independentof any calorimetricdata. It is applied to give the temperaturedependence of Cv over the range 0ø-I000øK of , periclase,, corundum, spinel, quartz, cristobalite, silica glass,coesite, stishovite, rutlie, albite, and microcline. The specificheat of the simpleDebyelike substances, halite and periclase,is reproducedwell by the model. The influence of the additional formula unit of H•.O on the vibrational and thermodynamic properties of brucite,as comparedto periclase,is discussed.The heat capacitiesof the relativelysimple minerals, spinel and corundum,are given accuratelyby the model. The heat capacitiesof quartz, cristobalite,and coesite are accuratelypredicted from spectroscopicdata through the model. The heat capacity of silica glassis discussedin terms of the classiccontinuous random network (CRN) model and a paracrysta!!inemodel, the pentagonal dodecahedral(PD) model of Robinson (1965). The PD model appears to be more consistentwith measuredCv data than the CRN model. The heat capacity data of rutlie are reasonably reproducedby Ihe model as are the data for stishoviteat temperaturesabove 50øK. Measureddata for stishovitebelow 50øK appear to contain an excessheat capacity relative to the model; this excessmay arise from surfaceenergy contributions, as was suggestedby Holm et al. (1967), and it is suggestedthat the model providesa better estimateof the low-temperaturevibrational heat capacityof stishovitethan the measureddata. The heat capacitiesof albite and microcline are reproducedwell by the model. The model is only a simpleapproximation to real lattice vibrational spectra,but it appearsto work well for a large number of mineralsand is thereforeuseful in correlatingstructural, compositional, elastic, spectro- scopic,and thermodynamicproperties for purposesof extrapolationand predictionof theseproperties.

It is most important to emphasizethat the heat capacitycan be calculatedfrom the tables of thesefunctions just as it can be calculatedfrom tables of the Debye or Einsteinfunctions. As an exampleof the useof the tables,consider the heat capacity of quartzat 300øK. Spectraldata give wt = 128cm -•, w, = 809 cm-•, and ws = 1100 cm-•. Mode enumeration gives 0.22 modesin the Si-O stretchingband, representedby an Einstein oscillator at 1100 cm-•. The nondimensionalizedfrequencies are xt = 0.61, x, = 3.88, andxs = 5.28.
