Using the Green’s function technique based on the linear muffin-tin orbital method in the atomic-spheres approximation we study the electronic structure of native defects and substitutional carbon impurities in cubic BN. To include the lattice relaxation effects a supercell approach in connection with the full-potential linear muffin-tin-orbital method is applied.

The structural, electronic and ferromagnetic properties of the V-doped BN(5, 5) are investigated by using first-principles spin-polarized calculations within generalized gradient approximation. The optimized structure shows that the V atom moves outwards and the hexagonal rings with the V atom experience significant distortion. The electronic structure indicates that the V-doped BN(5, 5) nanotube is half-metallic. The majority ferromagnetic moment comes from the V atom and slight magnetic moment is provided by the B atoms which are near to the V atom, while a little negative magnetic moment is contributed by the N atoms.

The results of first principles calculations of the electronic band structures, density of states, band gap, equilibrium lattice constants, cohesive energies, bulk moduli and magnetic moments are presented for the EuN with rock salt as ambient structure and cesium chloride as high-pressure structure. The tight-binding linear muffin tin orbital method within the local-density approximation is used. Both spin-polarized and non-spin polarized calculations are performed. The magnetic and structural stabilities are determined from the total energy calculations for both nonmagnetic (NM) and ferro-magnetic (FM) states. From the present study EuN illustrates half-metallic. The FM phase is more stable than NM phase. We further predict EuN undergoes a transition from NaCl -type (B1) to CsCl -type structure (B2) at 14.6 GPa, which could not be compared owing to the need of experimental and theoretical results. Futhermore, the bulk moduli, first-order pressure derivatives and magnetic moments are also estimated in B1 and B2 phases. The magnetic moment is estimated to be nearly 6 μB, which is in good agreement with the others reported value. A small decrease in magnetic moment is observed under pressure.
