Abstract: | A density functional (DFT) calculations of the structural, elastic and high pressure properties of the cubic XBi (X=U,Cm) compounds, has been reported using the full potential linear muffin-tin orbital (FP-LMTO) method. In this approach the local density approximation (LDA) is used for the exchange-correlation (XC) potential. Results are given for lattice constant, bulk modulus and its pressure derivatives. The pressure transitions at which these compounds undergo structural phase transition from NaCl-type (B1) to CsCl-type (B2) phase were found to be in good agreement with the available theoretical results. We have determined the elastic constants C11, C12, C44 and their pressure dependence which have not been established experimentally or theoretically. |
