  • Determined experimental bulk modulus for SrTiO3 : 183 ± 2 GPa.
  • Determined DFT lattice parameters and bulk modulus for SrTiO3, SrTiO3, SrTi1-xMnxO3, and SrMnO3 using four different exchange-correlation functionals (LDA, PBE, WC, PBEsol). See the article for the specific values. 
  • Comparison between different exchange-correlation functionals
