Title	Hardness Prediction and First Principle Study of Re-123(Re = Y, Eu, Pr, Gd) Superconductors
Author	Weiwei Liu*, Y P Zhou, X L Feng
Keywords	Superconductor, Rare earth, Hardness
Abstract	The chemical bond parameters of Y-123, Eu-123, Pr-123 and Gd-123 compounds have calculated using the chemical bond theory of complex crystals. Their hardness have been predicted by the chemical bond definition of hardness. The calculated results indicate that the Ba-O and RE-O types of bond have a lower covalent character and the Cu-O types of bond have greater covalency. The hardness values increase as the unit cell volume of the rare earth superconductor structures decrease.
