First-principles calculations have been performed to investigate the structural stability, elastic, lattice dynamic, and thermodynamic properties of Na2Se under high pressure. Our results demonstrate that Na2Se in the antifluorite structure phase keeps dynamically stable until 30 GPa. The elastic constants and thermodynamic quantities under high pressure are also calculated and discussed.

The elastic constants and phonon dispersion of metallic C[Formula: see text] are calculated by first-principles calculations. The results show that the metallic C[Formula: see text] is mechanically and dynamically stable under high pressure. The variations of G/B ratio, Poisson’s ratio, elastic anisotropy, acoustic velocity and Debye temperature at the pressure range from 0 GPa to 100 GPa are analyzed. The results reveal that by adjusting the pressures the elastic anisotropy and thermodynamic properties could be improved for better applicability.

The structural stability, thermodynamic, elastic, and electronic properties of cerium (Ce)- lanthanum (La) alloys were investigated for different Ce/La ratios under pressure by first-principles calculations using on-the-fly (OTF) pseudopotential and general gradient approximation (GGA). The ground-state properties of lanthanum and cerium obtained by minimizing the total energy agree favourably with other work.We derived the elastic constants, bulk modulus, and shear modulus of the La-Ce alloys for different Ce/La ratios. Using the quasi-harmonic Debye model, the thermodynamic properties of the La-Ce alloys including the thermal expansion coefficient α and heat capacity Cv are successfully obtained in the temperature range from 0 K to 1000 K. Furthermore, the electronic properties such as density of states and charge densities were also studied.

Third Order Elastic Constants

First-principles calculations combined with homogeneous deformation methods are used to investigate the second- and third-order elastic constants of YNi2B2C with tetragonal structure. The predicted lattice constants and second-order elastic constants of YNi2B2C agree well with the available data. The effective second-order elastic constants are obtained from the second- and third-order elastic constants for YNi2B2C. Based on the effective second-order elastic constants, Pugh’s modulus ratio, Poisson’s ratio, and Vickers hardness of YNi2B2C under high pressure are further investigated. It is shown that the ductility of YNi2B2C increases with increasing pressure.
