Abstract

A numerical approach is proposed to compute the quantum eigenmodes of a nonlinear Klein-Gordon lattice. In agreement with other studies on different lattices, nonlinearity is found to lead to a phonon pairing and consequently some biphonon excitations. The energy branch and the correlation properties of the Klein-Gordon biphonon are studied in detail.
