Debye Model of Solid • The solid is treated as a continuum, calculating the number of standing wave states in the frequency range between w and w + d w, and Bose-Einstein statistics is used to determine the number of phonons in each state. Then the energy can be calculated. Thermo & Stat Mech - Spring 2006 Class 20
