| Research Abstract |
We numerically calculated the damping rate γof acoustic phonons in an anomalous solid with parabolic phonon dispersion relation, in the cases of one-dimensional string (of length L), quasi-one-dimensional strip (of width W and length L), and quasi-one-dimensional rod (of cross section W×W and length L). In all cases, we got anomalous peaky structure in the frequency (ω) dependence of the damping rate γin the low frequency region, which proves a strong localization character of the long-wavelength acoustic phonons. However, we could not determine the numerical value of γ(ω,W→∞,L) in the limiting cases of two- and three-dimensions, because the peak values are of the order of 10^-5 or less in the unit of the inverse of the lattice constant. That means the localization length of the long-wavelength acoustic phonons in the anomalous disordered system is of the order of 0.1mm or more, in the cases of two- and three-dimensions, assuming that the lattice constant is 1nm.
