Abstract

More than a decade ago computer simulations based on Gordon-Kirn potentials suggested that NaCaF3 would be a ferroelectric compound if it could be formed experimentally. Recent attempts to form thin films of NaCaF3 using pulsed-laser deposition have prompted us to carry out further theoretical studies of this material. Here we apply the self-consistent atomic deformation method to calculate electronic, structural and vibrational properties of NaCaF3 and the constituent compounds NaF and CaF2.
