Investigation of the phononic and thermal properties of tungsten disulfide compound using density functional theory (Research Article)
In this paper, the phononic and thermal properties of tungsten disulfide have been studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the phonon and thermal properties such as heat capacity and enthalpy. The calculations are performed within the framework of density functional theory by pseudo-potential methood and by Quantum Espresso computational package and their exchange-correlation function...
متن کاملMechanochemical synthesis and high temperature thermoelectric properties of calcium-doped lanthanum telluride La3xCaxTe4
The thermoelectric properties from 300–1275 K of calcium-doped La3 xTe4 are reported. La3 xTe4 is a high temperature n-type thermoelectric material with a previously reported zTmax B 1.1 at 1273 K and x = 0.23. Computational modeling suggests the La atoms define the density of states of the conduction band for La3 xTe4. Doping with Ca 2+ on the La site is explored as a means of modifying the de...

In this paper, we have used density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) and Pseudo-potential method to calculate the phonon spectrum, phonon density of states (DOS), specific heat capacity and mechanical properties of (5,5) armchair and (9,0) zigzag Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs). Our calculations show that Young’s modulusfor (5,5) and (9,0) nanotubesare higher than 1TPa. We have also ...
