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.

ABSTRACTA theoretical approach has been developed that allows one to obtain thermodynamic properties of plutonium-based alloys and compounds from first-principles electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory. The approach is applied to study the defect structure in non-stoichiometric PuO2±δ.

AbstractThis contribution reports static ionic displacements in ferromagnetic disordered Fe70Pd30 alloys obtained by relaxation of the ionic positions of a 108-atom supercell within the framework of density functional theory. Comparison with a simple statistical model based on Lennard-Jones pair interactions reveals that these displacements are significantly larger than can be explained by the different sizes of the elemental constituents. The discrepancies are presumably related to collective displacements of the Fe atoms. Corresponding distortions are experimentally observed for ordered Fe3Pt and predicted by first-principles calculations for all ordered Fe-rich L12 alloys with Ni group elements and originate from details of the electronic structure at the Fermi level.
