First Principles Study on the Thermodynamic and Elastic Mechanical Stability of Mg<sub>2</sub>X (X = Si,Ge) Intermetallics with (anti) Vacancy Point Defects
In this paper, based on the density functional theory, through thermodynamic and mechanical stability criteria, the crystal cell model of intermetallic compounds with vacancy and anti-site point defects is constructed and the lattice constant, formation heat, binding energy, elastic constant, and el...
