AbstractThe vibrational and thermal properties of dolomite and alkali chlorates and perchlorates were studied in the gradient approximation of density functional theory using the method of a linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO). Long-wave vibration frequencies, IR and Raman spectra, and mode Gruneisen parameters were calculated. Equation-of-state parameters, thermodynamic potentials, entropy, heat capacity, and thermal expansion coefficient were also determined. The thermal expansion coefficient of dolomite was established to be much lower than for chlorates and perchlorates. The temperature dependence of the heat capacity at T > 200 K was shown to be generally governed by intramolecular vibrations.

The three single-crystal elastic constants of the cubic materials Al and TiN were calculated by an ab initio method within the local-density approximation of density-functional theory. The values were compared with experiment and averaged by the Kroner method to give polycrystalline results. The results agree well with experiment.

The elastic and thermodynamic properties of CdTe are studied under a pressure up to 8GPa and at a temperature range of 0~900K, by density functional theory as well as quasi-harmonic Debye model. The calculated bulk modulus B and its derivative B' are consistent with the values fitted according to Debye model, which confirms the applicability of Debye model to CdTe. Heat capacity Cv , Grüneisen parameter and thermal expansion coefficient decrease with pressure, but increase with temperature. It is an opposite case for Debye temperature . The results may be instructive for CdTe to be applied in extreme conditions.

The electronic and thermal properties of LuNi2B2C were studied by performing density-functional theory (DFT) and density functional perturbation theory (DFPT). No virtual frequencies appear on the phonon spectrum, indicating that LuNi2B2C is dynamically stable in the tetragonal structure up to 30 GPa. The density of states at Fermi energy EF is nonzero and falls on the sharp peak, which is why LuNi2B2C has a high superconducting temperature. Moreover, the temperature and pressure dependences of bulk modulus, heat capacity at constant pressure and thermal expansion coefficient in a wide temperature (0-900 K) and pressure (0-30 GPa) ranges are presented in this study.
