Popis: We have predicted a new crystal MgRhO 3 in the metal oxide family with a SrTiO 3 type structure by performing ab-initio calculations implemented within the CASTEP code. This present study includes the structural parameters, band structure, density of states, bonding characteristics and elastic parameters of the MgRhO 3 perovskite. The detailed study on the mechanical properties ensures the mechanical and dynamical stability of MgRhO 3 in nature. MgRhO 3 is ductile in manner and shows anisotropy characteristics. This new metal oxide exhibits metallic conductivity and complex bonding with covalent and ionic characteristics.
