Pressure dependence of structural, elastic and electronic properties of α-Al2O3: first-principles calculations

The first-principles calculations were performed to investigate the structural, elastic, mechanical and electronic properties of α-Al2O3 at applied pressure up to 50 GPa. The obtained ground state properties were in agreement with previous experimental and theoretical data. The elastic constants, bu...
