New potential super - incompressible phase of ReN 2
نویسندگان
چکیده
The structural, elastic, and electronic properties of ReN2 are investigated by first-principles calculations with density functional theory. The obtained orthorhombic Pbcn structure is energetically the most stable structure at ambient pressure. ReN2 is a metallic, superincompressible solid and presents a rather elastic anisotropy. The estimated Debye temperature and hardness are 735 K and 17.1 GPa, respectively. Its estimated hardness is comparative to that of Si3N4. PACS numbers: 61.50.Ks, 62.20.-x, 71.15.Mb, 71.20.-b, 71.20.Be

Computational Study on Reduction Potential of [CoP4N2(OH2)2]2+ as a Super-Efficient Catalyst in Electrochemical Hydrogen Evolution
Hydrogen is considered as a unique choice for future world’s resources. The important parameter in the process of hydrogen production is the value of reduction potential for the used catalyst, in direct contact with consumed energy in process. The application of computational methods to design and modify molecular catalysts is highly regarded. This study sought to explore Density Functional...
متن کاملInfluence of Heterogeneity on Rayleigh Wave Propagation in an Incompressible Medium Bonded Between Two Half-Spaces
The present investigation deals with the propagation of Rayleigh wave in an incompressible medium bonded between two half-spaces. Variation in elastic parameters of the layer is taken linear form. The solution for layer and half-space are obtained analytically. Frequency equation for Rayleigh waves has been obtained. It is observed that the heterogeneity and width of the incompressible medium h...
متن کاملA New Phase at Finite Quark Density from AdS/CFT
We explore phases of an N = 2 super Yang-Mills theory at finite quark density by introducing quark chemical potential in a D3-D7 setup. We formulate the thermodynamics of brane embeddings and we find that the density versus chemical potential equation of state has rich structure. This yields two distinct first order phase transitions in a small window of quark density. In order words, there is ...
