  • The structural, elastic properties and absorption spectra of ZnO in wurtzite (B4), NaCl (B1) and CsCl (B2) structures are studied by plane wave pseudo-potential (PWP) method. The method is based on the density functional theory (DFT) within the local-density approximation (LDA) and generalized gradient approximation (GGA) approaches. The calculation gives out the respective structural phase transition pressures for two transitions (B4B1, B1B2). We investigate the behavior of the elastic constants C as function of pressure and show the relation between the behavior and the phase transition. The blue shifts of absorption spectrum of ZnO under high pressure are found. Comparing the results between experiment and computation, we can find that the calculation by LDA is in better agreement with the experiment.
