The bond-charge model, originally devised to calculate the phonon spectrum of bulk semiconductors and extended with success to describe the vibrations of graphite and fullerenes C-60 and C-70, is applied to calculate the normal modes of vibration of small carbon aggregates, as the smallest fullerene (C-20), and odd-numbered linear and cyclic C-n clusters (n = 5-19). The resulting spectra provide a satisfactory account of the experimental findings and are in overall agreement with the results of ab initio calculations. [S0163-1829(98)02539-9].

Abstract
The bond-charge model, originally devised to calculate the phonon spectrum of bulk semiconductors and extended with success to describe the vibrations of graphite and fullerenes C-60 and C-70, is applied to calculate the normal modes of vibration of small carbon aggregates, as the smallest fullerene (C-20), and odd-numbered linear and cyclic C-n clusters (n = 5-19). The resulting spectra provide a satisfactory account of the experimental findings and are in overall agreement with the results of ab initio calculations.
