Abstract

Density functional calculations are used to investigate the trends in the lattice instabilities of the perovskites, BaTi O3, PbTi O3, BaZr O3, and PbZr O3 with volume. A simple scheme for classifying perovskites in terms of A -site and B -site activities is discussed in relation to competition between rhombohedral and tetragonal ground states.
