First-principles calculations for CdSe and CdTe nanostructures were carried out to study their mechanical properties and band structure under the uniaxial pressure range of 0 to 50GPa. It was presumed that the CdSe and CdTe nanostructures exist in the zinc-blende phase under high pressure. The mechanical properties, such as elastic constants, bulk modulus, shear modulus and Young?s modulus, were explored. Furthermore, Cauchy pressure, Poisson?s ratio and Pugh?s criterion were studied under high pressure for both CdSe and CdTe nanostructures, and the results show that they exhibit ductile property. The band structure studies of CdSe and CdTe were also investigated. The findings show that the mechanical properties and the band structures of CdSe and CdTe can be tailored with high pressure.

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.

In this paper, an in-depth theoretical study on some physical properties of Ti0.5Ta0.5 alloy with systematic symmetry under high pressure is conducted via first-principles calculations, and relevant physical parameters are calculated. The results demonstrate that the calculated parameters, including lattice parameter, elastic constants, and elastic moduli, fit well with available theoretical and experimental data when the Ti0.5Ta0.5 alloy is under T = 0 and P = 0 , indicating that the theoretical analysis method can effectively predict the physical properties of the Ti0.5Ta0.5 alloy. The microstructure and macroscopic physical properties of the alloy cannot be destroyed as the applied pressure ranges from 0 to 50GPa, but the phase transition of crystal structure may occur in the Ti0.5Ta0.5 alloy if the applied pressure continues to increase according to the TDOS curves and charge density diagram. The value of Young’s and shear modulus is maximized at P = 25   GPa . The anisotropy factors A ( 100 ) [ 001 ] and A ( 110 ) [ 001 ] are equal to 1, suggesting the Ti0.5Ta0.5 alloy is an isotropic material at 28 GPa, and the metallic bond is strengthened under high pressure. The present results provide helpful insights into the physical properties of Ti0.5Ta0.5 alloy.

When processing single crystal X-ray diffraction datasets for twins of Al2Cu sample synthesized by the high-pressure sintering (HPS) method, we have clarified why the crystal structure of Al2Cu was incorrectly solved about a century ago. The structural relationships between all existing Al2Cu phases, including the Owen-, θ-, θ’-, and Ω-Al2Cu phases, were investigated and established based on a proposed pseudo Al2Cu phase. Two potential phases have been built up by adjusting the packing sequences of A/B layers of Al atoms that were inherent in all existing Al2Cu phases. The mechanical, thermal, and dynamical stability of two such novel phases and their electronic properties were investigated by first-principles calculations.
