Abstract
In this study, we have investigated the high-pressure structural phase transition of alkaline earth's chalcogenides within the framework of three-body potentials. We are considering short-range repulsive interactions up to the second nearest neighbors. The structural phase transition from the low-pressure NaCl (B1) to the high-pressure CsCl (B2) structure is estimated by Gibbs free energy calculations. The results are satisfactory and in agreement with the available experimental and other theoretical results.
