Phonon Properties

In this paper, the structural, elastic and phonon properties of Ti 3 Al and Y 3 Al in L1 2( Cu 3 Al ) phase are studied by performing first-principles calculations within the generalized gradient approximation. The calculated lattice constants, static bulk moduli, first-order pressure derivative of bulk moduli and elastic constants for both compounds are reported. The phonon dispersion curves along several high-symmetry lines at the Brillouin zone, together with the corresponding phonon density of states, are determined using the first-principles linear-response approach of the density functional perturbation theory. Temperature variations of specific heat in the range of 0–500 K are obtained using the quasi-harmonic model.

Application Potential

The development of ferroelectric photovoltaic (FE-PV) materials has been limited for a long time due to their large bandgap. Many strategies for lowering the bandgap have been suggested to promote FE-PV properties. The effects of magnetic ordering and B-site-cation ordering to lower the bandgap of FE-PV are investigated in this paper using first-principles calculations. Results show that the most stable structure of tetragonal Bi2FeCrO6 ([Formula: see text]-Bi2[Formula: see text] is the AS1 structure (Fe/Cr alternate stacking ordering) with C-type antiferromagnetic ordering (defined as AC-[Formula: see text]-Bi2FeCrO6), which has a small bandgap, suggesting that AC-[Formula: see text]-Bi2FeCrO6 is among the FE-PV materials with the highest application potential.

The Relationship

Numerous studies have indicated that intrinsic defects in lithium niobate (LN) dominate its physical properties. In an Nb-rich environment, the structure that consists of a niobium anti-site with four lithium vacancies is considered the most stable structure. Based on the density functional theory (DFT), the specific configuration of the four lithium vacancies of LN were explored. The results indicated the most stable structure consisted of two lithium vacancies as the first neighbors and the other two as the second nearest neighbors of Nb anti-site in pure LN, and a similar stable structure was found in the doped LN. We found that the defects dipole moment has no direct contribution to the crystal polarization. Spontaneous polarization is more likely due to the lattice distortion of the crystal. This was verified in the defects structure of Mg2+, Sc3+, and Zr4+ doped LN. The conclusion provides a new understanding about the relationship between defect clusters and crystal polarization.
