Abstract
A computational study of the doping of BaLiF3 by divalent ions (Pb2+, Ni2+ and Co2+) is presented. The calculations provide information on t he energies involved in the doping process, and the consequent lattice relaxation. Predictions of the sites occupied by the dopant ions are made, which are supported by experimental results.
