model = sqw_acoustopt(p, h,k,l,w, {signal}) : acoutsic/optic dispersion(HKL) with DHO(energy)
iFunc/sqw_acoustopt: a 4D S(q,w) with a 3D HKL dispersion with
quadratic dependency, and a DHO line shape.
This dispersion corresponds with a local description of an excitation,
with its minimum around an (H0,K0,L0,E0) point.
The model requires to define a direction corresponding with a Slope1 dependency
as well as a second direction. An ortho-normal coordinate basis is then derived.
All HKL coordinates are in rlu, and energies are in meV.
The dispersion has the form:
w(q) = sqrt(E0^2 + Slope^2*(q-HKL0)^2)
so that when the dispersion is linear for E0=0 or far from HKL0, else it is
quadratic.
To define a pure acoustic mode, use (and adjust slopes):
sqw_acoustopt(0) % minimum is E0=0 at q=0
To define an optical mode with energy E0 at Q=0, use:
sqw_acoustopt([ E0 ]) % minimum is E0 at q=0
To define a mode which has its minimum E0 at a given HKL location, use:
sqw_acoustopt([ H K L E0 ])
When creating the Model, the following syntax is possible:
sqw_acoustopt(E0) centers the excitation at q=0 with energy E0
sqw_acoustopt([ h k l E0 ]) centers the excitation at q=[H K L] and energy E0
You can of course tune other parameters once the model object has been created.
WARNING: Single intensity and line width parameters are used here.
To model more than one branch, just add these models together.
Example:
s=sqw_acoustopt(5); qh=linspace(0,.5,50);qk=qh; ql=qh'; w=linspace(0.01,10,50);
f=iData(s,s.p,qh,qk,ql,w); plot3(log(f(:,1,:,:)));
