Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine the structural, and mechanical properties of Hg chalcogenide materials (HgX; X=S, Se, Te) in the zinc-blende structure which are presented as promising candidates for modern optoelectronic and spintronic applications. The dependence of elastic constants of pressure for three materials are evaluated. Moreover, isotropic mechanical properties such as bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio are obtained. Design/methodology/approach: First principles calculations based on Density Functional Theory are performed by employing Projector Augmented Waves potentials. The electronic exchange and correlation function is treated by using Generalized Gradient Approximation parametrized by Perdew, Burke and Ernzerhof (PBE96). Findings: Calculated results of structural and mechanical properties are in good agreement with those of experimental and other theoretical studies. This three materials in zinc-blende structure are mechanically stable. İsotropic mechanical properties are also obtained. Resistance against both linear strain and shear strain and ductility decrease as we go into the sequence of HgS−>HgSe−>HgTe. The wave velocities and Debye temperatures calculated for this materials. Debye temperatures are founded for HgS, HgSe and HgTe as 306.21 K, 264.30 K and 240.19 K, respectively Research limitations/implications: Calculation speeds of the computers and data storage are some limitations. Also, the lack of experimental data hinder for the comparison of our results. Practical implications: Obtaining high pressure elastic constants by calculations is preferable since it is very difficult or even impossible to measure them by experimentally. Originality/value: There are only restricted number of investigation of elastic constants of mercury chalcogenides both theoretically and experimentally.

Electronic-and-optical properties of Rb2ZnCl4 crystal have been studied using the theoretical and experimental methods. First principles calculations of the electronic structure and optical properties using the density functional theory have been performed on the relaxed and uniaxially compressed (1 GPa) Rb2ZnCl4 crystal. The refractive indices of Rb2ZnCl4 have been measured in the spectral range of wavelength 300 nm to 750 nm for three principal uniaxial compression stresses (0.02 GPa) at room temperature. Ab initio calculations and analysis have revealed that the observed uniaxial pressure changes of the refractive indices of Rb2ZnCl4 are caused mainly by the corresponding changes of the crystal unit cell dimensions. The unit cell electronic polarizability of the crystal remains approximately unchanged.

Zbadano właściwości elektronowo-optyczne kryształów Rb2ZnCl4 metodami teoretyczną i doświadczalną. Wykonano obliczenia z pierwszych zasad (ab initio) struktury elektronowej i właściwości optycznych na bazie teorii funkcjonału gęstości zrelaksowanych i jednoosiowo ściśniętych (1 GPa) kryształów. Zostały pomierzone współczynniki załamania Rb2ZnCl4 w przedziale długości fal światła 300 nm do 750 nm dla trzech głównych krystalograficznych kierunków ściskania (0.02 GPa) przy temperaturze pokojowej. Obliczenia ab initio i analiza danych ujawniły, że obserwowane baryczne zmiany współczynników załamania Rb2ZnCl4 są spowodowane głównie odpowiednimi zmianami rozmiarów komórki elementarnej kryształu. Przy tym, polaryzowalność elektronowa komórki kryształu pozostaję się prawie niezmienną.

First principles based numerical methods are used to determine the phase stability diagram of the Ir–Pt solid solution with A1-type crystal structure. Ising-like cluster expansion formalism was used to construct the lattice Hamiltonian. Phase diagram was calculated with the use of Monte Carlo simulations. Miscibility gap in this system was predicted. Calculated consolute temperature (TC) is about 1250 K at 50% of platinum when excess vibrational contribution to the free energy was included. The result is in good quantitative agreement with experimental data.

Purpose: The aim of this work investigate to the structural and mechanical properties of ZnTe in the B3 structure, using the ab initio method based on Density Functional Theory (DFT). Design/methodology/approach: The Vienna ab initio Simulation Package (VASP) has been used to perform the electronic structure calculations. The projector-augmented wave formalism (PAW) implemented in this package leads to very accurate result comparable to other all-electron methods. The electronic exchange and correlation functions are treated within DFT by using generalized gradient approximation. Findings: The lattice parameter, bulk modulus, it's pressure derivative and the elastic stiffness coefficients are calculated. Our results for the structural parameters and the elastic constants at the equilibrium phase are in good agreement with the available experimental and other theoretical studies. We have also investigated the pressure dependence of mechanical properties for ZnTe in the structure of B3 to see this effect. Research limitations/implications: These compounds are convenient for many technological applications because of they have direct energy band gaps and property of light emitters at room temperature. Practical implications: These compounds used to many technological applications, such as solid state laser devices, photovoltaic devices, solar cells, remote control systems, thin films, transistors, THz emitter, detector and imaging systems etc. Originality/value: In this work, determination of structural and mechanical properties of ZnTe in the B3 structure at high pressures will lead to new technological applications of these materials.

Purpose: The wide-gap semiconductor materials are very important for application in the fields of optical device technology. ZnS is wide-gap semiconductor that is attractive material due to the polymorphic structural transformation and it is suitable semiconductor for applications in infrared optics, ultraviolet laser devices, electronic image display, high-density optical memory, solar cell etc. The goal is to evaluate mechanical and electrical properties of ZnS dunder pressure. Design/methodology/approach: We report ab-initio calculations of lattice constants, bulk modulus and elastic constants of the B1 (rocksalt), B3 (zincblende) and B4 (wurtzite) structures of ZnS. Ab-initio calculations are based on the density functional theory (DFT) within generalized gradient approximation (GGA) for the exchange-correlation potential. Findings: Phase transition pressures from B4 phase to B3 phase, from B3 phase to B1 phase and from B4 phase to B1 are predicted from intersection of the enthalpy-pressure data for the three phases. These results are consistent with the experimental and other theoretical calculations. Mechanical properties of ZnS under high pressure are also calculated. It is seen that the mechanical properties of ZnS under high pressure are quite different from those ambient condition. The band structure, density of states (DOS) and energy gaps are also given for B3 structure of ZnS. Research limitations/implications: The results are compared with the previous theoretical and experimental data. Originality/value: Evaluation of mechanic and electronical properties of ZnS under pressure.

We report first principles calculations of the electronic and elastic properties of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconium dioxide doped with metal oxides like: GeO2, TiO2, SiO2, MgO and Al2O3. It is shown that addition of such dopants affects selected elastic properties of ZrO2, which is driven by the attraction of electron density by dopant atom and creation of stronger dopant-oxygen bonds. This effect contributes to the increase of superplasticity of doped material.

W pracy przedstawione są wyniki kwantowo-mechanicznych obliczeń własności elektronowych i elastycznych fazy tetragonalnej dwutlenku cyrkonu stabilizowanego tlenkiem itru z domieszkami tlenków metali, takich jak GeO2, TiO2, SiO2, MgO oraz Al2O3. Pokazano, że domieszkowanie wpływa na wybrane stałe elastyczne ZrO2, co jest spowodowane zmianami rozkładu gęstości elektronowej w pobliżu atomu domieszki oraz kreacją silniejszego wiązania domieszka-tlen. Ten efekt wnosi wkład do zwiększenia nadplastyczności domieszkowanego materiału.

Badano polimeryzację modelowego monomeru - - 2,2-difeny-lo-4,4,6,6-tetrametylocyklotrisiloksanu - wobec inicjatorów anionowych [silanolanu litu w THF, mieszaniny silanolanu potasu z eterem koronowym 18-crozvn-6 (1:1) w toluenie i silanolanu tetrametyloamoniowego w toluenie] oraz kationowych (kwasu trifluorometanosulfonowego i mieszaniny tego kwasu z estrem trimetylosililowym). Rozkład jednostek -R2SiO- w otrzymanych kopolimerach mierzono na poziomie pentad metodą 2''Si-NMR. Stosując analizę statystyczną Markova I rzędu [schemat A, układ równań (2)] w połączeniu z oznaczaniem sekwencji na końcach łańcucha polimeru, obliczono prawdopodobieństwa otwarcia pierścienia monomeru w trzech nierównocennych miejscach a, b i c (tabela 1). Analiza sekwencyjności pokazała, że chemoselektywność polimeryzacji jest znaczna; reakcje rozerwania wiązań siloksanowych w łańcuchu polimeru nie mają znaczenia do wysokich stopni przereagowania monomeru (>95%). Polimeryzacja nie jest natomiast regioselektywna - pierścień monomeru jest otwierany we wszystkich miejscach a, b i c, w proporcjach zależnych od układu polimeryzacyjnego. Rozkład sekwencji jednostek siloksanowych w łańcuchu dostarcza istotnych informacji na temat mechanizmu addycji monomeru do centrum aktywnego; omówiono ten mechanizm w odniesieniu do polimeryzacji anionowej i kationowej. Obliczenia kwantowo-mechaniczne wykazały, że brak regioselektywności w układzie może wynikać z oddziaływania kationu (przeciwjonu) z pierścieniem fenylowym, stabilizującego struktury, w których kation oddziałuje z mniej zasadowym atomem tlenu związanym z grupą Ph2Si.

29Si NMR spectroscopy was used to establish the sequence distribution in polymers prepared by ring opening of 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-6,6-diphenykyclotrisiloxane in the presence of anionie (lithium silanolate in tetrahydrofuran (THF), a (1:1) potassium silanolate-18-crown-6 ether mixture in toluene, and tetramethylammonium silanolate in toluene) and cationic (trifluoromethanesulfonic acid and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid-trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate) initiators. The pentad sequence distribution in the chains was deduced from 29Si NMR spectra and was simulated by numerical and Monte Carlo methods based on the first order Markov chain statistics (Scheme A, equation set 2) in combination with the determination of sequences at chain ends. Ring-opening probabilities were evaluated at three nonequivalent positions a, b and c (Table 1), whereby the chemoselectivity of polymerization and the regioselectivity of monomer's ring opening were determined. The polymerization proved to be highly chemoselective; the side reactions involving cleavage of siloxane bonds were found to be insignificant up to high monomer conversions (>95%). The first order Markov chain model showed the regioselectivity of monomer addition to the active center to be low, i.e., with each initiating system examined, the siloxane ring was opened at the three nonequivalent positions at significant levels of probability and in the proportions related to the type of the polymerization system (Table 1). This mechanism was discussed for both anionie and cationic polymerizations. The proportions of monomer openings exhibited the specific mechanistic features of the initiating systems used. Quantum-mechanical (ab initio) calculations showed the lack of regioselectivity in the polymerization systems to be attributable to phenyl ring-cation (counter-ion) interactions that stabilize the structures in which the cation interacts with the less basic oxygen atom linked to the Ph2Si group.
