Mechanical And Thermal Properties

In order to achieve better understanding of the effect of dopant (Sc, Y, Yb, Hf and Ce) on elastic stiffness and thermal properties of La2Zr2O7. The related calculations were performed using the first principles methods. The predicted elastic constants indicate that La2Zr2O7 and oxidations-La2Zr2O7 (oxidations refer to Sc2O3, Y2O3, Yb2O3, HfO2 and CeO2) are mechanically stable structures. And then the numerical estimates of bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s modulus were performed using the calculated elastic constants. After these mechanical properties are obtained, sound velocity, Debye temperature and theoretical minimum thermal conductivity of La2Zr2O7 and oxidations-La2Zr2O7 are calculated and analyzed in detail. The available experimental results and our calculations are basically satisfactory. The calculated results indicate that Young’s modulus, mean sound velocity, Debye temperature and minimum thermal conductivity of La2Zr2O7 can be decreased by dopants. CeO2 has extraordinary ability to decrease thermal conductivity in these dopant oxidations.

In this study, thermo-elastic and lattice dynamic properties of XMgAl (X = Li, Na) half-Heusler compounds are investigated using density functional theory implemented in WIEN2k and Quantum ESPRESSO codes. Generalized gradient approximation (GGA) as an exchange correlation function has been used in Kohn–Sham equations. Firstly, the structure of these Heusler compounds is optimized and then these optimized parameters are used to find three elastic constants [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] type structures. Three elastic constants are then used to determine different elastic moduli like bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s modulus and other mechanical parameters like Pugh’s ratio, Poisson’s ratio, anisotropic ratio, sound velocities, Debye temperature and melting temperature. On behalf of these mechanical parameters, the brittle/ductile nature and isotropic/anisotropic behavior of the materials has been studied. Different regions of vibrational modes in the materials are also discussed on behalf of Debye temperature calculations. The vibrational properties of the half-Heusler compounds are computed using Martins–Troullier pseudo potentials implemented in Quantum ESPRESSO. The phonon dispersion curves and phonon density of states in first Brillion zone are obtained and discussed. Reststrahlen band of LiMgAl is found greater than NaMgAl.

Using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory, the elastic constants and some of the related physical quantities, such as the bulk, shear, and Young’s moduli, Poisson’s ratio, anisotropic factor, acoustic velocity, minimum thermal conductivity, and Debye temperature, are reported in this paper for the hexagonal intermetallic compound Ti 3 Al. The obtained results are well consistent with the available experimental and theoretical data. The effect of pressure on all studied parameters was investigated. By the mechanical stability criteria under isotropic pressure, it is predicted that the compound is mechanically unstable at pressures above 71.4 GPa. Its ductility, anisotropy, and Debye temperature are enhanced with pressure.

The Density Functional Theory

The pressure dependence of the lattice and elastic constants of the orthorhombic YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 are firstly investigated using the first principles calculations based on the density functional theory. The calculated lattice parameters at 0 GPa are in agreement with the available experimental data. By the elastic stability criteria under isotropic pressure, it is predicted that YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 with and orthorhombic structure is mechanically stable under pressure up to 100 GPa. On the basis of the elastic constants, Pugh’s modulus ratio, Poisson’s ratio, elastic anisotropy, Debye temperature, and the minimum thermal conductivity of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 under pressure up to 100 GPa are further investigated. It is found that its ductility, Debye temperature, and minimum thermal conductivity increase with pressure.

The electronic structure, elastic properties, Debye temperature and thermal conductivity of MgB 2 are investigated by using the first-principles density function theory within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). The calculated elastic constants indicate that the MgB 2 is mechanically stable. The shear modulus, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, σ, the ratio B/G and universal anisotropy index are also calculated. Finally, the averaged sound velocity, longitudinal sound velocity, transverse sound velocity, Debye temperature and thermal conductivity are obtained.

Sound Velocities

The mechanical behavior, sound velocities and Debye temperature of beryllium-selenide (BeSe) semiconductor under pressure up to 50 GPa have been estimated using the structural parameters and elastic constants of Fanjie Kong and Gang Jiang (Physica B 404 (2009) 3935-3940). The Pugh ratio, the directional dependence of elastic wave velocity, the longitudinal, transverse and average sound velocities, and the Debye temperature are successfully predicted and analyzed in comparison with the available theoretical data. The analysis of the Pugh ratio indicates that this compound is prone to brittle behavior. Our obtained results of the longitudinal, transverse and average sound velocities at high pressure indicate that these of Kong and Jiang (Physica B 404 (2009) 3935-3940) are not correctly predicted.
