Carbonate minerals such as ferromagnesite (Mg,Fe)CO 3 are suggested to be a possible major deep-carbon host in the lower mantle, because ferromagnesite is possibly stabilized by Fe spin crossover under pressure. However, the behavior of Fe-bearing carbonates under lower mantle pressure conditions has not been suitably examined thus far. Thus, in this study, we investigate the high-pressure stability of ferromagnesite and possible high-pressure structures with the chemical composition of (Mg 0.833 Fe 0.167 )CO 3 via first principles calculation using internally consistent local density approximation with Hubbard parameter (LDA+U) method, which can more accurately account for the electronic state of Fe than the LDA and generalized gradient approximation (GGA) approaches. The enthalpy values obtained via our calculations suggest that (Mg 0.833 Fe 0.167 )CO 3 undergoes phase transition from the R 3 ¯ c structure (high spin) to the P 1 ¯ (high spin) at 50 GPa, and to C2/m (high-spin) structure above 80 GPa, under static 0 K conditions. Therefore, no spin transitions in these carbonate minerals is expected under the lower mantle pressure conditions.

The elastic constants and phonon dispersion of metallic C[Formula: see text] are calculated by first-principles calculations. The results show that the metallic C[Formula: see text] is mechanically and dynamically stable under high pressure. The variations of G/B ratio, Poisson’s ratio, elastic anisotropy, acoustic velocity and Debye temperature at the pressure range from 0 GPa to 100 GPa are analyzed. The results reveal that by adjusting the pressures the elastic anisotropy and thermodynamic properties could be improved for better applicability.

The pressure dependence of elastic properties of Mo2Ga2C is studied via first-principles calculation. The present investigation shows that differing from other MAX phases, in Mo2Ga2C the [Formula: see text] is larger than [Formula: see text], because of the strong Ga–Ga interlayer bonds along [Formula: see text]-axis. Moreover, under pressure, the [Formula: see text] increases more rapidly, originating from the faster strengthening of Ga–Ga bonds. Interestingly, elastic constants [Formula: see text] soften under high pressure (more than 20 GPa). Especially, the calculated phonon structure demonstrates that transverse acoustic (TA) phonon mode also softens under pressure, implying possible phase transition. The reduction of [Formula: see text] and softening of phonon mode are attributed to significantly weakened Mo–Mo interaction in contrast to the strengthening of Ga–Ga bonds under high pressure. Our present results further indicate that Mo2Ga2C is more ductile under pressure.
