20. The model parameters βr1 =19.39, βc=3.409, βv =1.318, βr2 =8.364, βp =0.008078, and βrc =2.534 (in eV) give the fit to LDA calculations shown in Fig. 1, with the standard deviation of σ=22.6 cm-1 and the maximum deviation of | ωmodel -ωLDA | =57 cm-1. A similar fit quality can be achieved in fitting generalized gradient approximation (GGA) phonon dispersions from Ref.. However, we recommend using instead the parameters of Table 1.
