Structural stability and electronic properties of GaAs[Formula: see text]P[Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) nanowires (NWs) in zinc-blende (ZB) ([Formula: see text] diameter [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Å) and wurtzite (WZ) ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Å) phases are investigated by first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT). GaAs ([Formula: see text]) and GaP ([Formula: see text]) compound NWs in WZ phase are found energetically more stable than in ZB structural ones. In the case of GaAs[Formula: see text]P[Formula: see text] alloy NWs, the energetically favorable phase is found size and composition dependent. All the presented NWs have semiconductor characteristics. The quantum size effect is clearly demonstrated for all GaAs[Formula: see text]P[Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) NWs. The band gaps of ZB and WZ structural GaAs compound NWs with [Formula: see text] diameter [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Å and [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Å, respectively are enlarged by the addition of concentrations of phosphorus for obtaining GaAs[Formula: see text]P[Formula: see text] NWs proportional to the x values around 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75.

AbstractTwo new phases of Si8C4 and Si4C8 with the P42/mnm symmetry are proposed. Using first principles calculations based on density functional theory, the structural, elastic, and electronic properties of Si8C4 and Si4C8 are studied systematically. Both Si8C4 and Si4C8 are proved to be mechanically and dynamically stable. The elastic anisotropies of Si8C4 and Si4C8 are studied in detail. Electronic structure calculations show that Si8C4 and Si4C8 are indirect semiconductors with the band gap of 0.74 and 0.15 eV, respectively.

We adopted the first-principles calculations within density functional theory (DFT) to investigate the structures, elastic, and electronic properties of ternary TiNi-X alloys with different four main-group elements by using the CASTEP code. The lattice constants and volumes increase gradually from C to Pb. The mechanical stability has been discussed by utilizing the criteria. All alloys are mechanically stable except TiNiPb. The values of Young’s modulus gradually decreased. Oppositely, the values of [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are increased, respectively. The ductility/brittleness of alloys is distinct. In addition, the width of pseudogap is gradually decreased, which is consistent with hardness, showing that the covanlency of TiNi-X alloys is decreased. Similarly, these properties of the remaining alloys are also discussed and results are stated in the paper.

ABSTRACTFirst principles calculations using density functional theory (DFT) are reported for two layers of methane adsorbed on the (100) surface of MgO. The lowest energy structure determined has a first layer with C2v methanes adsorbed above magnesium atoms, with hydrogen atoms pointed towards neighboring oxygen atoms, and a rotation of 90° in between each neighboring methane. The second layer methane layer has a similar structure, except the hydrogen atoms are directed towards nearest neighbor magnesium atoms. It is found that the structure of the first layer has a large effect on the relative energies of proposed bilayer structures, as does the calculated separation between the two layers of methane. Competing roles of surface-adsorbate and adsorbate-adsorbate interactions are also discussed.
