Unprecedented Integral-Free Debye Temperature Formulas: Sample Applications to Heat Capacities of ZnSe and ZnTe

Table 3

Conventional Taylor series expansion coefficients determined by least-mean square fittings of cryogenic data [46] for ZnSe and ZnTe (see Figure 6) via (35). The respective values are resulting from fitted values via (34).
