Structural And Electronic Properties

The structural and electronic properties of BN(5, 5) and C(5, 5) nanotubes under pressure are studied by using first principles calculations. In our study range, BN(5, 5) undergoes obvious elliptical distortion, while for C(5, 5) the cross section first becomes an ellipse and then, under further pressure, is flattened. The band gap of BN(5, 5) decreases with increasing pressure, which is inverse to that of zinc blende BN, whereas for C(5, 5) the metallicity is always preserved under high pressure. The population of charge density indicates that intertube bonding is formed under pressure. We also find that BN(5, 5) may collapse, and a new polymer material based on C(5, 5) is formed by applying pressure.

The structural stability, thermodynamic, elastic, and electronic properties of cerium (Ce)- lanthanum (La) alloys were investigated for different Ce/La ratios under pressure by first-principles calculations using on-the-fly (OTF) pseudopotential and general gradient approximation (GGA). The ground-state properties of lanthanum and cerium obtained by minimizing the total energy agree favourably with other work.We derived the elastic constants, bulk modulus, and shear modulus of the La-Ce alloys for different Ce/La ratios. Using the quasi-harmonic Debye model, the thermodynamic properties of the La-Ce alloys including the thermal expansion coefficient α and heat capacity Cv are successfully obtained in the temperature range from 0 K to 1000 K. Furthermore, the electronic properties such as density of states and charge densities were also studied.

We have performed the first-principles pseudopotential calculations to investigate the structural phase transition and electronic properties of SbI3 considering several possible phases as a function of pressure from 0 GPa to 100 GPa. Our calculations show that this material undertakes a structural transformation from the R-3 phase to high-pressure [Formula: see text] phase at about 6.5 GPa with a relative volume collapse of 4.3%. We also have investigated the elastic properties and energy band structure of SbI3 under hydrostatic pressure. The calculation suggests that the R-3 phase is a semiconductor with an indirect band gap of about 2.16 eV at 0 Gpa. Under the influence of pressure, we have found that high-pressure [Formula: see text] phase has transformed to metal at about 55 GPa.

AbstractThe mechanical and electronic properties of o-BC6N are studied by using first-principles calculations. The anisotropy studies of Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio show that o-BC6N exhibits a large anisotropy. Electronic structure study shows that o-BC6N presents metallicity under the conditions of zero and high pressure.
