The O-vacancy in bulk VO2 gives rise to an increase in electron concentration, which induces a decrease in Tc. While, O-vacancy and O-adsorption on VO2(R) (1 1 0) and VO2(M) (0 1 1) surfaces could alter the work functions and in turn regulate Tc.

The calculated electronic structures and optical properties indicate that K can be selected as an appropriate doping element for VO2, since it can effectively lower the phase transition temperature as well as enhance the near-infrared absorption.

The lattice parameters, phase transition, and thermodynamic properties of OsN2in pyrite and fluorite structure are investigated by first-principles calculations. The pressure and temperature induced phase transitions of OsN2from fluorite structure to pyrite structure have been obtained. It is found that the transition pressure of OsN2at zero temperature is 158.2 GPa, and there exists no transition temperature. In addition, the thermal expansion, the Debye temperature, and the Grüneisen parameter in diverse pressures and temperatures about these two structures have also been obtained. Key words: transition phase; thermodynamic properties; OsN2PACS numbers: 71.15.Mb, 64.70.Kb
