Abstract
Interest in perovskites evenly spans Materials Science and Geophysics. Due to their inimitably lattice flexibility enabling small as well as large ions to be accommodated, perovskites have become a base structure for new technological applications. Understanding the mechanisms governing their evolution at non-ambient conditions (such as high-pressure and high-temperature) is fundamentally important both for devising functional materials and in order to provide the most reliable possible deep-Earth model. With particular attention being paid to the chemical nature of the constituent ions, a suite of orthorhombic perovskites has been selected and contrasted using several parameterizations and models. A new perspective on the pressure-induced distortion of orthorhombic perovskite structures has enabled their compressional behaviour to be redefined.Pubblicazioni consigliate
