摘要
Density functional theory with a PBE gradient functional and a dispersion correction D3(BJ) in the basis of localized orbitals of the CRYSTAL17 package are used to calculate crystal structure parameters, electronic and vibrational spectra, elastic constants of rhombohedral double carbonates М1М2 (СО3)2 (М1, М2: Mg, Ca, Mn, Cd, Zn) with a dolomite-type structure. The paper demonstrates the possibility for establishing the linear dependences for lattice constants, interatomic distances, elastic constants and polycrystalline moduli, wave numbers of individual vibrational modes on the radii of cations. The same possibility is shown for the dependences of the parameters of chemical bonds and formation energies on their electronegativities. The lattice parameters increase along with the average cation radius, but the elastic constants and moduli demonstrate their decrease. The highest compressibility of carbonates is predicted in the direction of the c axis, which is consistent with the nature of the chemical bond, where stronger carbon — oxygen bonds are present in the ab plane, and weaker metal — oxygen bonds are in the direction of the c axis. The formation energy of binary carbonates CaMg(CO3)2 produced from solid oxides and gaseous CO2 is equal to -2.82 eV. It is equal to -2.71 eV for CaCd(CO3)2, and -0.054 eV, 0.023 eV for simple carbonates, respectively. The resulting formulas can be used to assess and predict the physical properties of solid solutions of carbonates of variable composition.
