Abstract
The collective dynamics for the longitudinal as well as the transverse modes of the phonon eigenfrequencies are carried out for three Zr-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) in the present paper by employing pseudopotential theory. The theoretical phonon models proposed by Hubbard-Beeby (HB), Takeno-Goda (TG) and Bhatia-Singh (BS) are used to generate the phonon dispersion curves (PDC). The elastic and thermodynamic properties have also been investigated for the said BMGs by using the elastic limit of the phonon dispersion curves. The screening impact was also observed by using five different forms of local field functions due to Hartree (H), Taylor (T), Ichimaru and Utsumi (IU), Faridet al. (F) and Sarkaret al. (S) for the aforesaid properties. The derived results are seen to be in qualitative agreement with the available experimental and theoretically calculated data, as they confirm the applicability of Shaw's constant core model potential and self-consistent phonon theory for such studies.
