Abstract

Cadmium (Cd) has great potential for application in the technology of manufacturing super-strong or heat-resistant alloys. The study of the thermodynamic properties of this metal is necessary not only in the scientific field but also in many industries. However, the study of some thermodynamic quantities of Cd such as Debye frequency and temperature, Debye – waller factor (DWF) at high pressure is still limited. In this paper, we use a semi-empirical method to study some thermodynamic properties of Cd metal including Debye frequency and temperature, DWF. The anharmonic Debye model and the Lindemann’s melting law are combined to study the melting temperature of Cd metal. Numerical calculations have been performed for Cd metal up to 50 GPa. The results we obtained are in good agreement with some previous results. This study not only provides additional data on the thermodynamic properties of Cd but also brings many practical applications in scientific and industrial fields.
