HIGH PRESSURE BEHAVIOR OF KCl: STRUCTURAL AND ELECTRONIC PROPERTIES

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

The high pressure behavior of the structural and electronic properties of KC1 is studied with use of the density functional pseudopotential method within local-density approximation. Atzero pressure, the rocksalt phase is found to be lower in energy than CsCl structure. However, we predict a phase transition into CsCI structure at a pressure of about 1.5 GPa. The calculated ground state properties such as lattice constant, bulk modulus, and its pressure derivative are in reasonable agreement with experiment. The electronic band structure at normal and high pressures is also calculated. It is found that metallization occurs for rocksalt and CsCI structures at ultrahigh pressures

NBO Analysis of Structural and Electronic Properties in B30N20

In this paper, the structural properties of the B30N20 molecule have been investigated at B3LYP/6-31G (d) level of theory. The optimized structure and electronic properties calculations for the studiedmolecule have been performed using Gaussian 03 program. A mathematical equation of third degreewas exploited for the correlation and exchange energy with the number of primitives. The NaturalBondi...

Structural and electronic properties of compressed selenium and tellurium under high pressure

We investigate the mechanisms of the nonmetal-metal transitions of Se and Te induced by the volume compression both in the solid and liquid states by the density functional method. The volume compression increases the band width and the system transforms from nonmetal to metal phase both in the crystalline Se and Te. When the system has structural disorder, the energy of the anti-bonding level ...

Bonding and Electronic Properties of Ice at High Pressure

The properties of water ice at megabar pressure are characterized with ab initio computer simulations. The focus lies on the metallic Cmcm phase and its insulating distorted analogue with Pnma symmetry. Both phases were recently predicted to occur at 15.5 and 12.5 Mbar respectively [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 (2010) 195701]. The Fermi surface of the Cmcm phase is analyzed and possibility of Fermi nes...
