Thermal conductivity of bulk and nanowire Mg₂Si_xSn_1–x alloys from first principles

Journal Article Li, Wu ; Lindsay, L. ; Broido, D. A. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

The lattice thermal conductivity (κ) of the thermoelectric materials, Mg₂Si, Mg₂Sn, and their alloys, are calculated for bulk and nanowires, without adjustable parameters. We find good agreement with bulk experimental results. For large nanowire diameters, size effects are stronger for the alloy than for the pure compounds. For example, in 200 nm diameter nanowires κ is lower than its bulk value by 30%, 20%, and 20% for Mg₂Si₀.₆Sn₀.₄, Mg₂Si, and Mg₂Sn, respectively. For nanowires less than 20 nm thick, the relative decrease surpasses 50%, and it becomes larger in the pure compounds than in the alloy. At room temperature, κmore »« less

First-principles localized cluster expansion study of the kinetics of hydrogen diffusion in homogeneous and heterogeneous Fe-Cr alloys

Journal Article Samin, Adib J. ; Andersson, David A. ; Holby, Edward F. ; ... - Physical Review B

Metal alloys have a wide range of technological applications, from structural materials to catalysts. In many situations, the transport of hydrogen, whether intentionally for hydrogen storage and fuel cell applications or unintentionally in the case of tritium uptake in nuclear materials, is an important concern. Fe-Cr binary alloys, in particular, may be viewed as a simple model system to represent ferritic steels used in nuclear energy systems and, more generally, as a model binary alloy for examining the role of alloying elements on transport. In this work, we used density functional theory, cluster expansion, and kinetic Monte Carlo to studymore »« less

Thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficient of high purity iron and selected iron alloys from 90 K to 400 K. [Fe--1. 14 Cr, Fe--2. 96 Cr, Fe--1. 15 Cr--1. 30 Ni, and Fe--3. 15 Ni]

Technical Report Holder, T. K.

The thermal conductivity, electrical resistivity, and Seebeck coefficient of high-purity iron, two iron--chromium alloys, one iron--nickel alloy, and one iron--chromium--nickel alloy were measured over the temperature range from 90 K to 400 K. Smoothed values for the thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity were used to calculate the electronic thermal conductivity, the lattice conductivity, and the Lorenz function by means of a binary alloy separation technique. The lattice conductivity and Lorenz function exhibited little change due to the addition of chromium; however, the addition of small amounts of nickel resulted in significant property changes. The lattice conductivity at high temperatures wasmore »« less

Optical Absorption and Band Gap Reduction in (Fe _1–x Cr _x ) ₂ O ₃ Solid Solutions: A First-Principles Study

Journal Article Wang, Yong ; Lopata, Kenneth ; Chambers, Scott A. ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. C

We provide a detailed theoretical analysis of the character of optical transitions and band gap reduction in (Fe1-xCrx)2O3 solid solutions using extensive periodic model and embedded cluster calculations. Optical absorption bands for x = 0.0, 0.5, and 1.0 are assigned on the basis of timedependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations. A band-gap reduction of as much as 0.7 eV with respect to that of pure α-Fe2O3 is found. This result can be attributed to predominantly two effects: (i) the higher valence band edge for x ≈ 0.5, as compared to those in pure α-Fe2O3 and α-Cr2O3, and, (ii) the appearancemore »« less
