Abstract
The Ruddlesden–Popper phases of the Ca–Ti–O system, Can+1TinO3n+1, are investigated by means of atomistic simulations employing empirical pair potentials. The stability of the phases is examined in terms of various reaction schemes: the formation from the binary oxides, the addition of the perovskite oxide to a given phase, and the reaction between perovskite and rock-salt oxides. The energies of these reactions are compared with results previously obtained for the Ruddlesden–Popper phases of the Sr–Ti–O system. The importance of the disproportionation reaction of the various R–P phases in both Ca and Sr systems is also emphasized. The results obtained are in good agreement with experimental observations regarding both systems.
