Abstract

Debye’s temperature θD is the temperature border between areas, CμV(Т) has constant value and, when T<θD, begins to decrease monotonically. θD is the crystal parameter, which allows to calculate the dimensional border between macro- and nanostates. The statement which is found in scientific discussions that θD depends on temperature is incorrect because it contradicts modern crystal-physical theories. The numerical value θD is defined experimentally and is related to the structure of crystals and to the processes taking place in them.
