A first-principles study of the structural, electronic and elastic properties of solid nitromethane under pressure

The structural,electronic and elastic properties of solid nitromethane are investigated under pressure by performing first-principles density functional theory(DFT)calculations within the generalized gradient approximation(GGA)and the local density approximation(LDA).The obtained ground state structure properties are found to be consistent with existing experimental and theoretical results.The pressure-induced variations of structure parameters(a,b,c and V)indicate that the solid nitromethane has an anisotropic compressibility,and the compression along the c direction is more difficult than along a and b directions.From the vibration curves of intermolecular bond length and bond angle,we find that the C—N bond is the most sensitive among these bonds under pressure,suggesting that the C—N bonds may be broken first under external loading.The influence of pressure on the electronic properties of solid NM has been studied,indicating that solid NM is an insulating compound with a large indirect band gap and tends to be a semiconductor with increasing pressure.Finally,we predict the elastic constants and their pressure dependence for the solid NM with the bulk modulus,Young’s modulus,shear modulus and the Poisson’s ratio derived.     

Elastic,thermodynamic, electronic,and optical properties of recently discovered superconducting transition metal boride NbRuB:An ab-initio investigation

The elastic, thermodynamic, electronic, and optical properties of recently discovered and potentially technologically important transition metal boride NbRuB, are investigated using the density functional formalism. Both generalized gradient approximation(GGA) and local density approximation(LDA) are used for optimizing the geometry and for estimating various elastic moduli and constants. The optical properties of NbRuB are studied for the first time with different photon polarizations. The frequency(energy) dependence of various optical constants complement quite well the essential features of the electronic band structure calculations. Debye temperature of NbRuB is estimated from the thermodynamical study. All these theoretical estimates are compared with published results, where available, and discussed in detail. Both electronic band structure and optical conductivity reveal robust metallic characteristics. The NbRuB possesses significant elastic anisotropy. Electronic features, on the other hand, are almost isotropic in nature. The effects of electronic band structure and Debye temperature on the emergence of superconductivity are also analyzed.

The electronic and optical properties of the cubic zinc-blende (ZB) structured filled tetrahedral semiconductor α-LiZnN under pressure are investigated by using \textit{ab initio} plane wave pseudopotential density functional theory method within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA).

Electronic, elastic, optical properties of rutile TiO2 under pressure: A DFT study

The electronic, elastic constants and optical properties of rutile TiO₂ have been investigated using first principle pseudopotential method within generalized gradient approximation (GGA) proposed by Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE). The calculated volume, bulk modulus and pressure derivative of bulk modulus are in good agreement with previous experimental and computational results. An underestimated band gap (1.970 eV) along with the higher density of states and expanded energy bands around the fermi level is obtained. Calculated elastic constants satisfying the Born stability criteria suggest that rutile TiO₂ is mechanically stable under higher hydrostatic pressure. The acoustic wave speeds in [1 0 0], [0 1 0], [0 0 1], [1 1 0] and [45° to [1 0 0] and [0 0 1]] directions are predicted using the investigated elastic constants. The dielectric constant is identified with respect to electronic band structure and is utilized to derive the other optical properties like refractive index, energy loss function, reflectivity and absorption. The effect of hydrostatic pressure (0-70 GPa) is described for listed properties. Our investigated results are in good accord with the existing theoretical and experimental results.

Elastic and phonon properties of FeSi and CoSi in the B2 structure

First principles calculations of structural, electronic, elastic, and phonon properties of the intermetallic compounds FeSi and CoSi in the B2 (CsCl) structure are presented, using the pseudopotential plane-wave approach based on density functional theory, within the local density approximation. The optimized lattice constants, independent elastic constants, bulk modulus, and first-order pressure derivative of the bulk modulus are reported for the B2 structure and compared with earlier experimental and theoretical calculations. A linear-response approach to density functional theory is used to derive the phonon dispersion curves, and the vibrational partial and total density of states. Atomic displacement patterns for FeSi at the Γ, X, and R symmetry points are presented. The calculated zone-center optical phonon mode for FeSi is in good agreement with experimental and theoretical data.
