The Cr2AlC and V2AlC nanolayered ternary carbides are studied by performing APW-lo ab initio total energy calculations within the recent Wu-Cohen generalized gradient approximation GGA. Using full relaxation procedure of the volume and the atomic positions we obtained the structural parameters and electronic structure of the optimization hexagonal. Results were compared with the experimental ones. Interesting features are deduced. In fact, we have shown why these materials are conductors.

We studied the atomic-level structure of a model Mg-MgH2 interface by means of the Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics method (CPMD). The interface was characterized in terms of total energy calculations, and an estimate of the work of adhesion was given, in good agreement with experimental results on similar systems. Furthermore, the interface was studied in a range of temperatures of interest for the desorption of hydrogen. We determined the diffusivity of atomic hydrogen as a function of the temperature, and give an estimate of the desorption temperature.

An ab initio procedure is described with a basis set of localized orbitals of the fragments. The method was tested on three molecular systems. The results are in agreement with the results of LCAO calculations

ABSTRACTAn electronic theory for the total energy of binary alloys is presented. It treats the entire range of concentration and short-range order. The method in not ab initio, but requires only information about the pure elemental constituents of the alloy. Results for two very different metal series, monovalent metals and 4-d transition metals, are calculated and compared to experiment and other models. The model calculation allows us to examine the physical basis for experimental trends.

AbstractThe atomic scale structures of the partial dislocation cores in GaAs are explored using ab initio electronic structure total energy techniques. The structure of the 30° partial dislocations are expected to be period doubled along the core. The structure of the 90° partial dislocations remains more uncertain, and here, an effort is made to predict which of two proposed reconstruction, double period or single period, is more stable. The relative energies of the two core structures are found to be equal, within the accuracy of the present calculations. It is suggested that at temperature, both core reconstructions will be present.
