The structure, properties and stability of 7 thermodynamically stable, meta-stable and high-pressure Al2O3 polymorphs and the structure and relative stability of 4 Al hydroxides were calculated with periodic hybrid density functional theory and compared with available experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
