Description
Summary:A new alternative approach has been suggested for evaluating the heat capacities of stannous selenide (SnSe), based on the Einstein-Debye approximation. It is well known the thermal behavior of solids is a very important theoretical problem that has been explored thoroughly with the development of Einstein, Debye and recently developed Einstein-Debye approximations. Many additional thermophysical characteristics of materials may be analyzed using the Einstein-Debye approach employed in this study. As an application, the heat capacities have been computed by using the Einstein-Debye method for SnSe in the temperatures range between 40 and 900 K. The temperature dependence of heat capacities have been computed and found to be in good accord with the literature throughout a wide temperature range.
