Abstract
In this work we have employed a static lattice simulation technique to
modeling the crystal structures and some bulk properties of the RE(TiTa)O-6 compounds, where RE = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Y,
Er and Yb. The generated interionic potentials adjust well the
structural parameters of the compounds. With the obtained potential
parameters we have simulated bulk properties, such as elastic and
dielectric constants, bulk modulus and lattice energy as well as
structural features, such as bond distances, orthorhombic strain and
octahedral distortions. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
