Transform H to a harmonic oscillator form by diagonalising the D matrix. Define v = u where u and v are N component vectors (elements ui and vi), and is an N N orthogonal matrix. v are linear combinations of the atomic displacements.

Choose such that M is diagonal with diagonal elements i. These are the eigenvalues of M and D, since is an orthogonal matrix. is the matrix of eigenvectors of D.

So, after much effort, we have transformed H to look like the Hamiltonian of N simple harmonic oscillators. The position and velocity coordinates vi and vi are called normal coordinates, which are linear combinations of the atomic coordinates. The oscillatory modes of motion described by these coordinates are called normal modes. They are the natural modes of oscillation of the structure. Each can be excited independently.
e.g.

and by inserting a trial oscillatory displacement pattern u i = Ai cos t we then need to solve
2 mAi =
Dij A j
j 2
which is the same problem of finding the eigenvalues m and eigenvectors Ai of the matrix D. Either way, we can derive the frequency spectrum, which in this example takes the form of two delta functions. (Delta functions are infinitely high, infinitely narrow peaks located at the point where the argument is zero. Main property is Density of states of normal modes

For N atoms in the 1-d chain, there are N delta functions. For large N , it is useful to introduce a density of states G(), such that G() d is the number of frequencies (i.e. delta functions) lying in the range + d . So, for N = 2 More generally
G ( ) = ( 1 ) + ( 2 ) G()
Shape depends on structure and couplings kij In detail G() is still a set of delta functions. The curve shown measures the density of these along the axis.
Can be extended to 3-d. In the harmonic approximation, H is equivalent to 3N simple harmonic oscillators. There is a density of states G() in 3-d too. What are these normal mode frequencies useful for? Calculating thermodynamic properties, since we know the properties of single oscillators.
