Crystal Stability and Pressure-Induced Phase Transitions in Scheelite AWO4(A=Ca,Sr,Ba,Pb,Eu) Binary Oxides. I: A Review of Recent ab initio Calculations, ADXRD, XANES, and Raman Studies

Journal Article · · Physica Status Solidi B
The structural properties of CaWO{sub 4}, SrWO{sub 4}, BaWO{sub 4}, PbWO{sub 4}, and EuWO{sub 4} scintillating crystals under pressure have been studied by X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray absorption near-edge structure measurements, Raman spectroscopy, and ab initio density functional theory calculations. The results obtained from these studies will be reviewed here and their differences and similitudes discussed.
