Classifying Possible Tilting of Oxygen Octahedra in Perovskites
Abstract
The list of possible commensurate phases obtained from the parent tetragonal phase of perovskites by allowing the tilting of octahedra of oxygen ions is reexamined. It is found that many structures allowed by symmetry are not consistent with the constraint of very rigid octahedra.
