Abstract

Pressures of the B1–B2 transitions are calculated for 12 alkali-halide compounds as functions of the crystal size with the use of the potentials of pairwise ion interactions obtained self-consistently within the framework of the density functional method. A vacancy contribution to the character of the size effect of the B1-B2 polymorphic transformation is analyzed.
