Abstract: | Using ab initio plane-wave pseudopotential density
functional theory method, we have studied the structural and thermodynamic
properties of the wurtzite boron nitride (w-BN). Through the quasi-harmonic Debye model, in which the phononic effects are considered, the dependencies of the normalized lattice parameters a/a0 and
c/c0, the axial ratio
c/a, and the normalized primitive cell volume V/V0 on pressure P
and temperature T are investigated. Furthermore, the Debye temperature
Θ, the variation of thermal expansion α, as well as the heat
capacity CV as functions of P and T are studied systematically. |
