Ab Initio Study of Elastic and Mechanical Properties in FeCrMn Alloys.

ABSTRACT: Mechanical properties of FeCrMn-based steels are of major importance for practical applications. In this work, we investigate mechanical properties of disordered paramagnetic fcc FeCr 10 ? 16 Mn 12 ? 32 alloys using density functional theory. The effects of composition and temperature changes on the magnetic state, elastic properties and stacking fault energies of the alloys are studied. Calculated dependencies of the lattice and elastic constants are used to evaluate the effect of the solid solution strengthening by Mn and Cr using a modified Labusch-Nabarro model and a model for concentrated alloys. The effect of Cr and Mn alloying on the stacking fault energies is calculated and discussed in connection to possible deformation mechanisms.

Project description:GeTe-based and PbSe-based high-entropy compounds have outstanding thermoelectric (TE) performance and crucial applications in mid and high temperatures. Recently, the optimization of TE performance of high-entropy compounds has been focused on reducing thermal conductivity by strengthening the phonon scattering process to improve TE performance. We report a first-principles investigation on nine GeTe-based high-entropy chalcogenide solid solutions constituted of eight metallic elements (Ag, Pb, Sb, Bi, Cu, Cd, Mn, and Sn) and 13 PbSe-based high-entropy chalcogenide solid solutions: Pb0.99-ySb0.012SnySe1-2xTexSx (x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.25, 0.3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, and y = 0) and Pb0.99-ySb0.012SnySe1-2xTexSx (y = 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25 and x = 0.25). We have investigated the mechanical properties focusing on Debye temperature (ΘD), thermal conductivity (κ), Grüneisen parameter (γα), dominant phonon wavelength (λdom), and melting temperature (Tm). We find that the lattice thermal conductivity is significantly reduced when GeTe is alloyed into the following compositions: Ge0.75Sb0.13Pb0.12Te, Ge0.61Ag0.11Sb0.13Pb0.12Bi0.01Te, and Ge0.61Ag0.11Sb0.13Pb0.12Mn0.05Bi0.01Te. This reduction is due to the mass increase and strain fluctuations. The results also show that Ge0.61Ag0.11Sb0.13Pb0.12Bi0.01Te solid solution has the lowest Young's modulus (30.362 GPa), bulk and shear moduli (18.626 and 12.359 GPa), average sound velocity (1653.128 m/sec), Debye temperature (151.689 K), lattice thermal conductivity (0.574 W.m-1.K-1), dominant phonon wavelength (0.692 Å), and melting temperature (535.91 K). Moreover, Ge0.61Ag0.11Sb0.13Pb0.12Bi0.01Te has the highest Grüneisen parameter with a reduced and temperature-independent lattice thermal conductivity. The positive correlation between ΘD and κ is revealed. Alloying of PbSe-based high-entropy by Sb, Sn, Te, and S atoms at the Se and Pb sites resulted in much higher shear strains resulted in the reduction of phonon velocity, a reduced ΘD, and a lower lattice thermal conductivity.

Project description:The present study successfully implemented the ab initio quantum mechanical charge field molecular dynamics (QMCF MD) formalism for the investigation of structural and dynamical properties of hydrated cobalt-porphyrin complexes. Considering the significance of cobalt ions in biological systems (for instance, vitamin B12), which reportedly incorporate cobalt ions in a d6, low spin, +3 state chelated in the corrin ring, an analog of porphyrin, the current study is focused on cobalt in the oxidation states +2 and +3 bound to the parent porphyrin lead structures embedded in an aqueous solution. These cobalt-porphyrin complexes were investigated in terms of their structural and dynamical properties at the quantum chemical level. The structural attributes of these hydrated complexes revealed the contrasting features of the water binding to these solutes, including a detailed evaluation of the associated dynamics. The study also yielded notable findings in regard to the respective electronic configurations vs coordination, which suggested that Co(II)-POR possesses a 5-fold square pyramidal coordination geometry in an aqueous solution containing the metal ion coordinating to four nitrogen atoms of the porphyrin ring and one axial water as the fifth ligand. On the other hand, high-spin Co(III)-POR was hypothesized to be more stable due to the smaller size-to-charge ratio of the cobalt ion, but the high-spin complex demonstrated unstable structural and dynamical behavior. However, the corresponding properties of the hydrated Co(III)LS-POR revealed a stable structure in an aqueous solution, thus suggesting the Co(III) ion to be in a low-spin state when bound to the porphyrin ring. Moreover, the structural and dynamical data were augmented by computing the free energy of water binding to the cobalt ions and the solvent-accessible surface area, which provide further information on thermochemical properties of the metal-water interaction and the hydrogen bonding potential of the porphyrin ring in these hydrated systems.
