First-principle investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of PbMn（SO4）2

The magnetic properties of oxide PbMn(SO₄)₂ consisted of MnO₆ octahedra which connected with each other through SO₄ tetrahedra, are well studied in experiments. In this paper, we explored its interesting electronic and magnetic properties with first-principle calculations. Our results show that all Mn ions have high spin states, namely, S = 5/2, and the magnetic couplings between NN and NNN are antiferromagnetic, which agree well with the experimental results. Besides, the surprising results of spin exchange interactions between the NN and NNN are excellently explained with extended Hückel tight-binding calculations.     

Si(111)面上氮原子薄膜的电子态密度第一性原理计算及分析

由于氮原子在Si(1 1 1)表面成键的失配度最小,因此考虑Si(1 1 1)取向上用不同百分比的氮原子钝化硅表面悬挂键.由第一性原理计算结果显示,当Si(1 1 1)表面层中的氮原子含量为75%—100%时,带隙展宽并且有局域陷阱态产生. 我们提出相应的局域电子态模型,从而解释了Si基氮膜光致荧光(PL)发光增强实验的物理机理. 关键词： 第一性原理计算 氮化Si薄膜 PL发光增强 局域陷阱态

Sn3InSb4合金嵌Li性能的第一性原理研究

采用第一性原理超软赝势平面波方法计算了Sn₃InSb₄的嵌Li性能,得到各种嵌Li相的嵌Li形成能、理论质量比容量、体积膨胀率、能带结构、态密度和差分电荷密度等.从能量角度分析,Li在嵌入时,优先占据晶胞的四面体间隙位置,然后逐步挤出处于节点位置的Sn原子和In原子.在嵌Li过程中,材料表现出较大的体积膨胀率(11.74%-43.40%),这是导致Sn₃InSb₄作为Li离子电极材料循环性能差的重要原因.态密度计算表明,体系的导电性能首先随嵌Li量的增加而增加,当所有的间隙位置被Li填满,发生Sn的替换反应时,富Li态合金相的导电性反而下降.     

Defect properties of CuCrO₂:A density functional theory calculation

Using the first-principles methods,we study the formation energetics properties of intrinsic defects,and the charge doping properties of extrinsic defects in transparent conducting oxides CuCrO2.Intrinsic defects,some typical acceptortype,and donor-type extrinsic defects in their relevant charge state are considered.By systematically calculating the formation energies and transition energy,the results of calculation show that,V Cu,O i,and O Cu are the relevant intrinsic defects in CuCrO2 ;among these intrinsic defects,V Cu is the most efficient acceptor in CuCrO2.It is found that all the donor-type extrinsic defects have difficulty in inducing n-conductivity in CuCrO2 because of their deep transition energy level.For all the acceptor-type extrinsic defects,substituting Mg for Cr is the most prominent doping acceptor with relative shallow transition energy levels in CuCrO2.Our calculation results are expected to be a guide for preparing promising n-type and p-type materials in CuCrO2.

一硼化铪的晶体结构预测与构效关系基因

利用基于进化算法的晶体结构预测软件USPEX,并结合第一性原理方法对HfB的稳定晶体结构进行全局搜索。在基态条件下,新发现2个HfB晶体结构（空间群：P6m2和R3m）。其中,P6m2结构比已报道的HfB晶体结构（空间群：Pnma、Cmcm、I4₁/amd和Fm3m）具有更低的基态能量。这些结构中,B原子分别以二维类石墨烯（P6m2和R3m结构）,zig-zag链（Pnma、Cmcm和4₁/amd结构）和孤立原子（Fm3m结构）₃种形式存在,从而导致它们具有显著的化学键合特征、高温稳定性和强韧特性差异。     

Material design for magnesium alloys with high deformability

Magnesium alloys are very promising structural material, especially because of their low density, but their poor deformability at room temperature is making their commercial application impractical. Some alloying elements have been shown to improve the ductility dramatically, and a search for the yet better alloying elements is now a pressing task. In this study, we investigated the effects of several alloying elements on the mechanical and deformation behaviour of magnesium alloys using both first-principles calculations as well as experiments. The first-principles calculations indicate that the influential key factor for the activation of non-basal slips is the electronegativity and atomic radius. The experimental result proves that the alloys with a similar electronegativity as magnesium and a little larger atomic radius than that of magnesium, such as Ca, Sr and some rare earth elements, show superior ductility due to activation of non-basal dislocation slips. These results propose a promising design principle for the alloys with the improved deformability at room temperature ranges.
