The linear thermal expansion coefficient of tetrahedrally coordinated AIIBVIand AIIIBVsemiconductors has been calculated using plasmon energy data. A simple relation between the bond length and plasm on energy has been derived. The calculated values of thermal expansion coefficient and bond length have been compared with the experimental values and the values reported by differentworkers. An excellent experiment has been obtained between them.
