Insights into structural,electronic, optical and thermoelectric properties of WB and WAlB: a first principle study

Detailed investigations on structural, electronic, optical and thermoelectric properties of WB and WAlB have been done by using a full-potential linearised augmented plane wave method. Different approximations have been used to treat the exchange–correlation potential. The PBEsol-GGA method is found to be the most suitable for WB and WAlB. The obtained values of the equilibrium structural parameters such as lattice constants, volume and bulk modulus are in good agreement with the available experimental and theoretical data. The results of electronic charge density plots show that WB has a strong covalent bond between B-B and an ionic bond between W-B. In case of WAlB, the distance between any two atoms is more than the corresponding interatomic distance in WB. The band structure and density of states around the fermi level suggest that WB has a metallic nature and WAlB has a semimetal-like character. The optical properties are determined and analysed in detail for the first time. The larger reflectivity in the low-energy region (infrared) indicates that these materials can be used as a coating material to remove solar heating. The effects of temperature on thermoelectric parameters are also studied for the first time. High value power factor and high thermal conductivity suggest that WB and WAlB are potential candidates for thermoelectric technological applications.

The under-pressure behaviour of mechanical,electronic and optical properties of calcium titanate and its ground state thermoelectric response

Abstract

In this study, the elastic, electronic, optical and thermoelectric properties of CaTiO₃ perovskite oxide have been investigated using first-principles calculations. The generalised gradient approximation (GGA) has been employed for evaluating structural and elastic properties, while the modified Becke Johnson functional is used for studying the optical response of this compound. In addition to ground state physical properties, we also investigate the effects of pressure (0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 GPa) on the electronic structure of CaTiO₃. The application of pressure from 0 to 90 GPa shows that the indirect band gap (Γ-M) of CaTiO₃ increases with increasing pressure and at 120 GPa it spontaneously decreases transforming cubic CaTiO₃ to a direct (Γ-Γ) band gap material. The complex dielectric function and some optical parameters are also investigated under the application of pressures. All the calculated optical properties have been found to exhibit a shift to the higher energies with the increase of applied pressure suggesting potential optoelectronic device applications of CaTiO₃. The thermoelectric properties of CaTiO₃ have been computed at 0 GPa in terms of electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and Seebeck coefficient.

Effects of various defects on the electronic properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes: A first principle study

The geometries,formationenergies and electronic band structures of （8, 0） and （14, 0） singlewailed carbon nanotubes （SWCNTs） with various defects, inehlding vaeaney, Stone-Wales defect, and octagon pentagon pair defect, have been investigated within the framework of the density- huictional theory （DFT）, and the influence of the concentration within the same style of deflect on the physical and chenfical properties of SWCNTs is also studied. The results suggest that the existeilcc of vacancy and octagon-pentagon pair deflect both reduce the band gap, whereas the SW- defect induces a band gap opening in CNTs. More int, erestingly, the band gaps of （8, 0） and （14, 0） SWCNTs eonfigurations with two octagon pentagon pair defect presents 0.517 eV and 0.163/eV, which arc a little smaller than the perfectt CNTs. Furthermore, with the concentration of defects increasing, there is a decreasing of band ga.p making the two types of SWCNTs change from a semiconductor to a metallic conductor.     

Electronic structures and thermoelectric properties of solid solutions CuGa_(1-x) In_xTe_2 : A first-principles study

The electronic structures of solid solutions CuGal_xlnxTe2 are systematically investigated using the full-potential all-electron linearized augmented plane wave method. The calculated lattice parameters almost linearly increase with the increase of the In composition, which are in good agreement with the available experimental results. The calculated band structures with the modified Becke-Johnson potential show that all solid solutions are direct gap conductors. The band gap decreases linearly with In composition increasing. Based on the electronic structure calculated, we investigate the thermoelectric properties by the semi-classical Boltzmann transport theory. The results suggest that when Ga is replaced by In, the bipolar effect of Seebeck coefficient S becomes very obvious. The Seebeck coefficient even changes its sign from positive to negative for p-type doping at low carrier concentrations. The optimal p-type doping concentrations have been estimated based on the predicted maximum values of the power factor divided by the scattering time.     

Ni掺杂浓度对硅纳米线光电性质的影响

利用基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理,对不同直径和浓度Ni掺杂硅纳米线的形成能、能带结构、态密度和光学性质进行了计算,结果表明：杂质Ni的形成能随硅纳米线直径的减小和掺杂浓度的降低而下降,这说明直径越大的硅纳米线掺杂越困难,杂质浓度越高的硅纳米线越不稳定. Ni掺杂在费米能级附近及带隙中引入杂质能级,其主要来自Ni的3d轨道,杂质能级扩展成杂质带,改变Ni的掺杂浓度可改变硅纳米线的带隙,改善其导电性. 另外,还发现掺杂浓度明显改变了硅纳米线的吸收强度和宽度.

First-principles study of lattice dynamics and thermodynamics ofosmium under pressure

We have performed the first-principles linear response calculations of the lattice dynamics, thermal equation of state and thermodynamical properties of hcp Os metal by using the plane-wave pseudopotential method. The thermodynamical properties are deduced from the calculated Helmholtz free energy by taking into account the electronic contribution and lattice vibrational contribution. The phonon frequencies at Gamma point are consistent with experimental values and the dispersion curves at various pressures have been determined. The calculated volume, bulk modulus and their pressure derivatives as a function of temperature are in excellent agreement with the experimental results. The calculated specific heat indicates that the electronic contribution is important not only at very low temperatures but also at high temperatures due to the electronic thermal excitation. The calculated Debye temperature at a very low temperature is in good agreement with experimental values and drops to a constant until 100~K.

Structural stability and electronic properties of carbon star lattice monolayer

By means of the first-principles calculations, we have investigated the structural stability and electronic properties of carbon star lattice monolayer and nanoribbons. The phase stability of the carbon star lattice is verified through phononmode analysis and room temperature molecular dynamics simulations. The carbon star lattice is found to be metallic due to the large states across the Fermi-level contributed by pz orbital. Furthermore, the nanoribbons are also found to be metallic and no spin polarization occurs, except for the narrowest nanoribbon with one C12 ring, which has a ferromagnetic ground state. Our results show that carbon star lattice monolayer and nanoribbons have rich electronic properties with great potential in future electronic nanodevices.
