摘要
First-principles quantum chemistry calculations within the periodic linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) formalism have been used to probe electronic and phonon properties of crystalline 5d transition metal oxides ReO3, ZnWO4 and CaWO4. The obtained equilibrium crystal structure is in good agreement with known crystallographic data. Rhenium trioxide is correctly predicted to be a metal, whereas both tungstates-a wide gap insulating compounds. The phonon frequencies, calculated by the frozen phonon method, agree rather well with those obtained by infrared and Raman spectroscopies.
