摘要
We have investigated LIH, NaH, KH and RbH theoretically under high compressions by means of first-principles self-consistent total-energy calculations within the local-density approximation using the full-potential linear-muffin-tin-orbital(FPLMTO) method. Our calculations predict CrB crystal structures at high pressure for RbH and KH but not for NaH and LiH. This phase is similar to the recent high-pressure experimental observations of crystallographic phase transformations in CsH. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
