Abstract

The mechanism of the formation of ionic and bonding defects and the interaction between protons and heavy ions in hydrogen-bonded molecular systems is investigated and a new model is constructed. This model considers two coupled sublattices corresponding to those of protons and heavy ions in order to study the dynamic properties resulting from deformation and local fluctuation of the heavy ion sublattice due to the protonic displacements. As compared with other models, the model emphasizes, in particular, the collective effect of the motion and the mutual correlation between the two sublattices. The equations of motion admit analytic soliton solutions of different types corresponding to two different defects. The combined effect of the two defects and the proton transfer in the system are described by means of these solutions, and the appropriate conditions associated with actual physical processes. Finally, we discuss in detail the characteristics of the proton transfer and the advantages of the model.
