Abstract: | In this paper, the structural, elastic, electronic properties of Ru2CrZ (Z=Si, Ge, Pb, Sn) are explored using the generalized gradient approximation based on ab initio plane-wave pseudopotential density functional theory. With the help of the quasi-harmonic Debye model, we also investigate the variation of normalized volume V/V0, the heat capacities CV and CP, thermal expansivity, and Debye temperature of Ru2CrZ (Z=Si, Ge, Pb, Sn). Results show that the Cu2MnAl type structure is more stable then Hg2CuTi type structure. The four compounds in the ground state are predicted to be nearly half-metal behavior with total magnetic moment near to the integer value. To provide a comparative and complementary study to future researches, we investigated the elastic and thermodynamic properties. |
