We present a microscopic lattice-dynamics calculation of the zone-center phonons in Si, Ge, GaAs, and ZnSe based on first-principles dielectric matrices. Our results compare favorably with the experimental data and show that local-field effects are essential to explain the trends with increasing ionicity.
