The tetragonal to orthorhombic ferroelastic phase transition between rutile- and CaCl2-type SiO2 at high pressures is studied using first-principles calculations and the Landau ...
Lattice thermal conductivities of zincblende- and wurtzite-type compounds\nwith 33 combinations of elements are calculated with the single-mode\nrelaxation-time approximation an...
Thermal properties of ternary carbides with composition Ti3SiC2, Ti3AlC2, and Ti3GeC2 were studied using the first-principles phonon calculations. The thermal expansions, the he...
In this paper the phonon self energy produced by anharmonicity is calculated\nusing second order many body perturbation theory for all bcc, fcc and hcp\ntransition metals. The s...
Crystal structures of metals are often treated as dense packing of atomic spheres. Face-centered cubic and hexagonal close-packed structures are favored in many metals. Long-per...
The pressure-induced transitions from molecular to nonmolecular CO2 crystals are systematically investigated by using first-principles lattice dynamics calculations. Geometrical...
A number of researchers have used a simulated body fluid (SBF) to get an in vitro preliminary assessment of bone-bonding ability of an artificial material by examining apatite-f...
The relationships between the atomic arrangements, electronic structures, and energetics of three sesquioxides, As2O3, Sb2O3, and Bi2O3, are systematically investigated by first...
Structural stability of paramagnetic (PM) body-centered cubic (bcc) Fe under\npressure is investigated based on first-principles phonon calculations. Spin\nconfigurations of the...
