摘要:

基于密度泛函理论,我们首次系统地研究了过渡金属硼化物M_3B_4(M=Ti,V,Cr,Zr,Nb,Mo,Hf,Ta,W)的结构稳定性、力学性能和化学键。所有目前研究的M3B4已被证明是化学和机械稳定的。导出了理想多晶M_3B_4聚集体的体积模量、剪切模量、杨氏模量、泊松比、显微硬度、德拜温度和各向异性。此外,还讨论了这些等结构M_3B_4的德拜温度与显微硬度的关系。此外,柯西压力,体积模量与剪切模量的比值,泊松比的结果表明,过渡金属的价电子在M3B4的延展性中起着重要的作用。计算的M3B4的总态密度表明,所有这些硼化物显示金属导电性。通过对电子局域化函数的分析,我们发现M_3B_4的塑性提高可能是由于角键特征的降低。

英文摘要:

Based on density functional theory, we have systematically studied the structural stability, mechanical properties and chemical bonding of the transition metal borides M3B4 (M=Ti, V, Cr, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf, Ta, and W) for the first time. All the present studied M3B4 have been demonstrated to be thermodynamically and mechanically stable. The bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, microhardness, Debye temperature and anisotropy have been derived for ideal polycrystalline M3B4 aggregates. In addition, the relationship between Debye temperature and microhardness has been discussed for these isostructral M3B4. Furthermore, the results of the Cauchy pressure, the ratio of bulk modulus to shear modulus, and Poisson's ratio suggest that the valence electrons of transition metals play an important role in the ductility of M3B4. The calculated total density of states for M3B4 indicates that all these borides display a metallic conductivity. By analyzing the electron localization function, we show that the improvement of the ductility in these M3B4 might attribute to the decrease of their angular bonding character.
