Ab initio interionic potentials for CaO by multiple lattice inversion
Using Chen-Mobtus inversion, we derive the interionic pair potentials from pseudopotential total-energy curves of the CaO crystals in B1, B3 and two P4/mmm virtual structures. Based on these potentials, the static properties of CaO in the rocksatt phase are calculated. Moreover, the phase stability of B1-CaO has been described by the energy minimizations from the disordered to the ordered states. Furthermore, the pressure-induced phase transition, phonon dispersion curves and properties of (CaO)n clusters have also been investigated. Compared with experimental data, most of our results indicate that the present calculated potentials are effective for studying properties of CaO ionic crystal.
