The lattice structure and electronic properties of perfect and defective CoSi 2 and NiSi 2 have been calculated using an ab initio plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method based on the generalized gradient approximations (GGA). Special attention is paid to the formation energies of the vacancies, which largely depend on the atomic chemical potentials of Si and metal atom: in Si -rich limit, the formation energies of Si and Co vacancies are 2.39 eV and 0.56 eV whilst those are 1.53 eV and 2.29 eV in Co -rich limit in CoSi 2, respectively. For NiSi 2, the formation energies of Si and Ni vacancies are 0.56 eV and 1.25 eV in Si -rich limit and those are 0.04 eV and 2.3 eV in Ni -rich limit.

AbstractAtomic resolution high-voltage transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy were performed on grain boundaries of boron-doped diamond, cooperated with the ab-initio calculation. Segregated boron in the {112}∑3 boundary was caught by the EELS spectra. The change in atomic structure of the segregated boundary was successfully observed from the image by ARHVTEM. Based on the ARHVTEM image, a segregted structure model was proposed.
