【 摘 要 】

Nonlinear localized excitations in one-dimensional diatomic lattices with cubic and quartic nonlinearity are considered analytically by a quasidiscreteness approach. The criteria for the occurrence of asymmetric gap solitons (with vibrating frequency lying in the gap of phonon bands) and. small-amplitude, asymmetric intrinsic localized modes (with the vibrating frequency being above all the phonon bands) are obtained explicitly based on the modulational instabilities of corresponding linear lattice plane waves. The expressions of particle displacement for all these nonlinear localized excitations are also given. The result is applied to standard two-body potentials of the Toda, Born-Mayer-Coulomb, Lennard-Jones, and Morse type. The comparison with previous numerical study of the anharmonic gap modes in diatomic lattices for the standard two-body potentials is made and good agreement is found.
