متن کاملSurface energies of AlN allotropes from first principles
In this letter we present first-principles calculations of the surface energies of rock-salt (B1), zinc-blende (B3) and wurtzite (B4) AlN allotropes. Of several low-index facets, the highest energies are obtained for monoatomic surfaces (i.e. of only either Al or N atoms): [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The difference between Al- and N-terminated surfaces in these cases is less th...
متن کاملDislocation core energies and core fields from first principles.
Ab initio calculations in bcc iron show that a 111 screw dislocation induces a short-range dilatation field in addition to the Volterra elastic field. This core field is modeled in anisotropic elastic theory using force dipoles. The elastic modeling thus better reproduces the atom displacements observed in ab initio calculations. Including this core field in the computation of the elastic energ...
متن کاملCoverage and Strain Effects on Adsorption and Diffusion of Hydrogen over Al(111) from First Principles
The diffusion of hydrogen in aluminum is thought to be a critical process in the embrittlement of aluminum. Experimentally determined diffusivities reported in the literature, however, provide little guidance into understanding hydrogen diffusion in aluminum as measurements taken at 20 C vary by over 17 orders of magnitude. Herein, we use ab initio methods to elucidate the elementary diffusion ...
متن کاملActivation Energies for Diffusion in Alloys
The problems involved in calculating correlation factors for diffusion in dilute alloys can be contrasted to those arising in concentrated solid solutions. As one moves from the pure element to the dilute alloy to the concentrated alloy, the calculation becomes progressively more difficult. Because of the complex atom configurations which can occur in concentrated alloys, it usually is not poss...
