The Ideal

The benefit of computational methods applying density functional theory for the description and understanding of modulated crystal structures is investigated. A method is presented which allows one to establish, improve and test superspace models including displacive and occupational modulation functions from first-principles calculations on commensurate structures. The total energies of different configurations allow one to distinguish stable and less stable structure models. The study is based on a series of geometrically optimized superstructures of mullite (Al4+2x Si2−2x O10−x ) derived from the superspace group Pbam(α0½)0ss. Despite the disordered and structurally complex nature of mullite, the calculations on ordered superstructures are very useful for determining the ideal Al/Si ordering in mullite, extracting atomic modulation functions as well as understanding the SiO2–Al2O3 phase diagram. The results are compared with experimentally established models which confirm the validity and utility of the presented method.

We study systematically the site occupancy and effects of alloying element on NiAl bonds character of 4d transition metals by first-principles method based on density functional theory. The impurity formation energies of 4d TM of NiAl in Al -site and Ni -site are calculated. Y , Zr , Nb , Cd prefer to occupy the Al -site, whereas Mo , Tc , Ru , Rh , Pd , Ag prefers to occupy Ni - si te. Crystal distortion and the overlap population between the alloying element and its first-neighboring atoms and are also calculated. The result shows that the substituting Al -site the elements Y , Zr , Nb , Cd interact with its first-neighboring Ni atom by anti-bonding. The total covalent ratio is decreased by theses elements which may improve ductility of NiAl . For Ni -site elements, the interaction between the alloying element Mo ( Tc , Ru , Rh , Pd , and Ag ) with its first-neighboring atoms Al also shows decrease in covalent. Site occupation of 4d transition metals are also discussed by the reaction energy for formation Ni 2 TiX and X bulk phase.

Functional Theory

First-principles supercell calculations, which are based on density functional theory, were performed to study the site preference behavior and elastic properties of 5d (Hf-Au) transition-metal elements in B2 ductility YAg alloy. It is found that all alloying elements Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt and Au occupy the Y sub-lattice. Micro-alloying transition metals W, Re, Os, Ir and Pt decrease the lattice parameters of Y8Ag8 except Hf, Ta and Au, among which Y8Ag7Hf shows the largest variance. Furthermore, the calculated elastic constants show that Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Pt and Au improve the ductility of YAg alloy, and Y8Ag7Hf presents the most ductility among these alloy, while Ir transforms ductile into brittle for YAg alloy. In addition, Os alloying element increases the hardness of YAg alloy.

In the previous chapters we described the basic principles of density functional theory, gave examples of how accurate it is to describe static magnetic properties in general, and derived from this basis the master equation for atomistic spin-dynamics; the SLL (or SLLG) equation. However, one term was not described in these chapters, namely the damping parameter. This parameter is a crucial one in the SLL (or SLLG) equation, since it allows for energy and angular momentum to dissipate from the simulation cell. The damping parameter can be evaluated from density functional theory, and the Kohn-Sham equation, and it is possible to determine its value experimentally. This chapter covers in detail the theoretical aspects of how to calculate theoretically the damping parameter. Chapter 8 is focused, among other things, on the experimental detection of the damping, using ferromagnetic resonance.
