A linear spring model, where the interactions among atoms are assumed to be isotropic and elastic, is employed for the study of non-polar optical phonon scattering in the valence band of alloy semiconductors. The force equations of n atoms are used in the spring model for the consideration of the random distribution of constituent atoms in an alloy semiconductor. When the number of atoms in a unit cell is assumed to be two based on the experimental result, the optical deformation potent is valid for compound semiconductors as well as alloy semiconductors.
