GeTe-PbTe PbS-PbTe PbSe-PbS PbTe-PbSe PbTe-SnTe SnTe-GeTe mixing and coherency strain energies
(2012-10-15)Nanostructures formed by phase separation improve the thermoelectric figure of merit in lead chalcogenide semiconductor alloys, with coherent nanostructures giving larger improvements than incoherent nanostructures. However, ... -
Au Replication data tensile deformation gold nanowire
(2013-01-31)Under tensile deformation, Au nanowires (NWs) elongate to form single atom chains via a series of intermediate structural transformations. These intermediate structures are investigated using static density functional ... -
AlN–GaN; GaN–InN; AlN–InN
(2013-01-31)First principles phase diagram calculations were performed for the wurtzite-structure quasibinary systems AlN–GaN, GaN–InN, and AlN–InN. -
Hf-Ox First principles phase diagram calculations for the octahedral-interstitial system
(2013-04-03)The group IV hexagonal closest packed (hcp) suboxides MOX (M = Ti, Zr or Hf) all exhibit octahedral interstitial ordering of oxygen, O, and vacancies, in solid solutions of the form View the MathML source, 0≤X≤1/2. By far, ... -
CaCO3-MgCO3 CdCO3–MgCO Subsolidus phase diagrams
(2013-04-03)Planewave pseudopotential calculations of supercell total energies were used as bases for first-principles calculations of the CaCO3–MgCO3 and CdCO3–MgCO3 phase diagrams. Calculated phase diagrams are in qualitative to ... -
TiO2: On the possibility of ferromagnetism
(2013-04-08)To see if ferromagnetism can occur in C-doped anatase TiO2, we performed first-principles calculations for a number of C-doped structures in which C atoms substitute O atoms. Our study shows that each C has spin-polarized ... -
SiC-AlN, SiC-GaN and SiC-InN: wurtzite-structure quasibinary systems
(2013-04-08)The cluster-expansion method was used to perform first principles phase diagram calculations for the wurtzite-structure quasibinary systems (SiC)1-X(AlN)X, (SiC)1-X (GaN)X and (SiC)1-X(InN)X; and to model variations of ... -
PbTiO3: Dipole moment of a Pb-O vacancy pair
(2013-04-08)The polarization of a nearest-neighbor (nn) Pb-O vacancy pair [(VPb-VO)nn] in PbTiO3 is calculated, using the modern theory of polarization, implemented in the density-functional-theory ultrasoft pseudopotential formalism. ... -

NaCl–KCl: The role of excess vibrational entropy
(2013-04-08)First principles phase diagram calculations were performed for the system NaCl–KCl. Plane-wave pseudopotential calculations of formation energies were used as a basis for fitting cluster expansion Hamiltonians, both with ... -
NaNbO3–KNbO3: Can spinodal decomposition generate relaxor ferroelectricity?
(2013-04-08)First principles based phase diagram calculations were performed for the system (1−X) NaNbO3–(X) KNbO3. Plane wave pseudopotential calculations of formation energies were used as a basis for fitting a cluster expansion ... -
ZrSiO4-HfSiO4
(2013-05-09)ZrSiO4 and HfSiO4 are of considerable interest because of their low thermal expansions, thermal conductivities, and the optical properties of HfSiO4. In addition, silicate phases of both are studied as model radioactive ... -
Ti-O-M interaction between oxygen and metal (M) substitution in titanium for oxygen diffusion change
(2013-05-28)We calculate first-principles interaction energies between substitutional solutes and oxygen interstitials in α-titanium and predict the effect of solutes on oxygen diffusion from those interactions. Interaction between ... -
Electronic structures of long periodic stacking order structures in Mg: A first-principles study
(2014-08-08)Long period stacking order (LPSO) structures, such as 6H, 10H, 14H, 18R and 24R, play significant roles in enhancing the mechanical properties of Mg alloys and have been largely investigated separately. In the present ... -
Elemental vacancy diffusion for fcc and hcp structures
(2014-08-08)This work demonstrates how databases of diffusion-related properties can be developed from high-throughput ab initio calculations. The formation and migration energies for vacancies of all adequately stable pure elements ... -
