Popis: | In this work, the interatomic potentials of para tellurite (α-TeO2) and cubic europium oxide (Eu2O3) based on molecular dynamics method were studied. We reported the structural properties of α-TeO2 and Eu2O3 in their crystalline and glass phases and we calculated for the first time their mechanical properties, where our results showed good agreement with the experimental data from previous reports. Finally, we investigated the effect of potential combination of α-TeO2 and Eu2O3, and we used the results to discuss the effect of Europium doping on α-TeO2 matrix. As conclusion, any composition of the three elements (tellurium, oxygen and europium) can be modelled using our interatomic potentials. |
