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.

The elastic properties and electronic properties of MxNy (M = Ti, Zr) TiN, Ti2N, Zr3N4, ZrN with different structures have been investigated using density functional theory. Through the calculation of the elastic constants, it was found that all of these structures meet the mechanical stability except for ZrN with space group P63mc. Their mechanical properties are studied by a comparison of various parameters. The stiffness of TiN is larger than that of ZrN with space group Fm 3 ¯ m. Ti2N’s stiffness with space group I41/amdz is larger than Ti2N with space group P42/mnm. Zr3N4’s stiffness with space group Pnam is largest in three structures of Zr3N4. TiN, Ti2N and ZrN are non-central force, Zr3N4 is central force. TiN and ZrN with space group Fm 3 ¯ m are brittle, and TiN is brittler than ZrN with space group Fm 3 ¯ m. The two kinds of Ti2N are brittle and Ti2N with space group I41/amdz is larger. Three structures of Zr3N4 are tough and Zr3N4 with space group I 4 ¯ 3d is the toughest. Meanwhile, the electronic properties of TiN, Ti2N, Zr3N4 and ZrN were calculated, possible superconducting properties of the studied materials were predicted.

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.
