The results are compared with the data of a similar calculation of the ideal ZrSiO4 crystal. An analysis of the overlap populations and effective charges on the atoms of the matrix and impurity showed that chemical binding of uranium with the environment is covalent, and the electron density redistribution caused by this substitution changes not only the impurity and the nearest environment, but also the atoms of the next coordination spheres Полный текст |
