First Principles Study on the Effect of Pressure on the Structure, Elasticity, and Magnetic Properties of Cubic GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub> Prussian Blue Analogue
The structure, elasticity, and magnetic properties of Prussian blue analogue GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub> under external pressure ranges from 0 to 40 GPa were studied by first principles calculations. In the range of pressure from 0 to 35 GPa, GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub> not only has the ha...

The structure, elasticity, and magnetic properties of Prussian blue analogue GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub> under external pressure ranges from 0 to 40 GPa were studied by first principles calculations. In the range of pressure from 0 to 35 GPa, GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub> not only has the half-metallic characteristics of 100% spin polarization, but also has stable mechanical properties. The external pressure has no obvious effect on the crystal structure and anisotropy of GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub>, but when the pressure exceeds 35 GPa, the half-metallicity of GaFe(CN)<sub>6</sub> disappears, the mechanical properties are no longer stable, and total magnetic moments per formula unit are no longer integer values. |
