The one-dimensional model of the off-centre potential of the fluorine ion in the NaBr lattice

Abstract

Fluorine ions in NaBr have associated large dipole moments with low-lying energy levels. It is well known that the dipoles were found to have equilibrium orientations in the (110) direction. A one-dimensional, double-well harmonic oscillator potential model is assumed for the relaxation rate calculation of this off-centre system. It is possible by superimposing an asymmetric potential which localizes the particle in one potential well and assuming that, the coupling between the particle and the lattice vibrations can lead to the relaxation of the system. These preliminaries theoretical studies are used to determine the height of the potential barrier between the two minima of the off-centre potential in the one-dimensional case approximation.
