Transformations between tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated crystals: the wurtzite -> rocksalt and blende -> rocksalt mechanisms
The mechanism of the pressure-driven phase transformation from the wurtzite (B4) to rocksalt (B1) crystal structures is studied in a 'constant-stress' molecular dynamics simulation of a model ionic system. The mechanism differs significantly from that exhibited by the same system in transf...
