摘要: Phase stability of \(\mathrm {NaZr_2(PO_4)_3}\) has been studied through density functional theory calculations elastic constants, equation state and enthalpies. The changes in constants as a function pressure show that the ambient rhombohedral (R\(\bar{3}c\)) becomes unstable above 8 GPa this instability is driven by softening C\(_{44}\) constant one Born criteria. High-pressure equation-of-state enthalpy further (\(R\bar{3}c\)) structure transforms first into another (R3) phase subsequently to LiZr\(_2\)(PO\(_4\))\(_3\)-type orthorhombic at pressures 6 respectively which are agreement with recent x-ray diffraction study. Analysis interatomic distances allows for shorter Na–O Zr–P bonds high appears enable strong bonding stability. Calculated formation bulk modulus found be reasonable respective experimental values.
