Abstract

Pressure dependence of the k\ensuremath{\sim}0 TO phonon frequencies of KCl and KBr is reported in the pressure range of 1 to 35 kbar. Using the $P\ensuremath{-}V$ data, the volume dependence of these modes was determined. The Gr\"uneisen parameters thus obtained compare well with those calculated from Born-Mayer-type potentials. It appears that the temperature dependence of the k\ensuremath{\sim}0 TO phonon frequency of KBr can be completely accounted for by its volume dependence. In the temperature range of 5 to 750\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}K, the "self-energy shift" due to anharmonicity thus seems to be small compared with the thermal-expansion part. The CsCl phase occurs in both KCl and KBr at appropriate pressures. The k\ensuremath{\sim}0 TO frequency, as expected, drops by some 10 to 12% at the transition pressure.
