| Summary: | Using the group theory and the method of invariants, it is shown how the vibronic potential can be written in a matrix form and the corresponding adiabatic potentials can be found. The molecule having D<sub>3d</sub> symmetry is considered herein as an example. The symmetries of normal vibrations active in Jahn-Teller's effect were defined. E-E vibronic interaction was considered to obtain vibronic potential energy in a matrix form and thus the adiabatic potential. Significant differences are shown in the construction of a secular matrix D(k) for defining a dispersion law for charge carriers in the crystals and the matrix of vibronic potential energy, which depends on the normal coordinates of normal vibrations active in Jahn-Teller's effect. Dispersion law of charge carriers in the vicinity of Γ point of Brillouin zone of the crystal with D<sub>3d</sub><sup>2</sup> symmetry was considered as an example. |
