Phonon ( quantized lattice vibration wave ) is a central thermal energy carrier contributing to heat capacity ( sensible heat storage ) and conductive heat transfer in condensed phase, and plays very important role in thermal energy conversion.

This three-phonon transition is mirrored in emission when the excited state quickly decays to its zero-point lattice vibration level by means of a radiationless process, and from there to the ground state via photon emission.

The exchange of virtual phonons ( quantized lattice vibration ) provides for such an attractive force, but in case of gold you don't get an atractive interaction . talk ) 20 : 57, 28 April 2014 ( UTC)

These higher energy photons will be absorbed by the solar cell, but the difference in energy between these photons and the silicon band gap is converted into heat ( via lattice vibrations called phonons ) rather than into usable electrical energy.

The energy eigenstates of the linear harmonic oscillator ( e . g ., masses on springs, lattice vibrations in a solid, vibrational motions of nuclei in molecules, or oscillations in the electromagnetic field ) are fixed-number quantum states.

In 1941, Foldy graduated with a B . S . degree in physics from the Case School of Applied Science ( now renamed to the " Case School of Engineering " ), his senior thesis was on crystal lattice vibrations.

These energy fluctuations are caused by random lattice vibrations, which can be viewed as a gas of phonons . ( The random motion of the atoms in the lattice is what we usually think of as heat . ) Because these phonons are generated by the temperature of the lattice, they are sometimes designated thermal phonons.
