Extensive two- and three-dimensional periodic first-principles simulations have been carried out to investigate the mechanical response of graphite to hydrostatic and nonhydrostatic stress conditions. Our results show a clear analogy between uniaxial $({\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{z})$ stress and hydrostatic pressure as far…

Abstract Above‐room‐temperature polar magnets are of interest due to their practical applications in spintronics. Here we present a strategy to design high‐temperature polar magnetic oxides in the corundum‐derived A 2 BB′O 6 family, exemplified by the non‐centrosymmetric ( R 3) Ni 3 TeO 6 ‐type Mn 2+ 2 Fe 3+ Mo 5+ O 6…

By means of ab-initio calculations, we study the surface magnetism of carbon foam, a carbon allotrope constructed by both the sp2 and sp3 hybridized carbon atoms. It is found that the sp3-terminated surface and sp2-terminated surface with hydrogen saturation (sp2H) have the antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic ground s…

Chemisorbed hydrogen on boron nitride nanotubes (BNNT) can only be released thermally at very high temperatures above 350 °C. However, no catalyst has been identified that could liberate H2 from hydrogenated BN nanotubes under moderate conditions. Using different density functional methods we predict that the desorpti…
