Triple Axis Spectrometers Have Mapped Phonons<br />

Dispersion Relations in Many Materials<br />

• Point by point measurement in (Q,E)<br />

space<br />

• Usually keep either k I or k F fixed<br />

• Choose Brillouin zone (I.e. G) <strong>to</strong> maximize<br />

scattering cross section for phonons<br />

• Scan usually either at constant-Q<br />

(Brockhouse invention) or constant-E<br />

Phonon dispersion of 36 Ar
