ABSTRACTNative point defects play an important role in HgCdTe. Here we discuss some of the relevant mass action equations, and use recently calculated defect formation energies to discuss relative defect concentrations. In agreement with experiment, the Hg vacancy is found to be the dominant native defect to accommodate excess tellurium. Preliminary estimates find the Hg antisite and the Hg interstitial to be of comparable densities. Our calculated defect formation energies are also consistent with measured diffusion activation energies, assuming the interstitial and vacancy migration energies are small.

AbstractPt-Sc alloys with the γ-γ′ microstructure are proposed as a basis for a new generation of Pt-based superalloys for ultrahigh-temperature applications. This alloy system was identified on the basis of first-principles calculations. Here we discuss the prospects of the Pt-Sc alloy system on the basis of calculated elastic properties, phonon spectra, and defect formation energies.

ABSTRACTWe show in a theoretical density functional theory study that amorphous Si (a-Si) has more favorable energetics for Mg storage compared to crystalline Si (c-Si). Specifically, Mg and Li insertion is compared in a model a-Si simulation cell. Multiple sites for Mg insertion with a wide range of binding energies are identified. For many sites, Mg defect formation energies are negative, whereas they are positive in c-Si. Moreover, while clustering in c-Si destabilizes the insertion sites (by about 0.1/0.2 eV per atom for nearest-neighbor Li/Mg), it is found to stabilize some of the insertion sites for both Li (by up to 0.27 eV) and Mg (by up to 0.35 eV) in a-Si. This could have significant implications on the performance of Si anodes in Mg batteries.
