A simple parameter measuring the substitution energy difference between Si and Mo sites reflects the nature of site occupancy. At 0 K, these elements prefer Si sites in Mo-rich and Mo sites in Si-rich, and show no site preference in stoichiometric MoSi2. At elevated temperature, the site occupation behaviors show strong dependence on both composition and temperature. Some calculated results have been certified in previous experiments.展开更多

Hydrogen occupation sites in LaNi4.5Sn0.5Hy have been determined based on Westlake's criterions: (1) the minimum hole radiuS is 0.04 nm; (2) the minimum H-H distance is 0.21 nm; as well as geometry optimizations and internal coordinates optimizations. We find that hydrogen atoms prefer to occupy the 12n*, 6m, 12o, 6m* sites in LaNi4.5Sn0.5H2.0 and the 6m*, 4h, 6m, 12o, 12n* sites in LaNi4.5Sn0.5H2.5. The specific coordinates of hydrogen atoms in LaNi4.5Sn0.5Hy are also determined. The results show that hydrogen atoms tend to keep away from tin atoms. The maximum hydrogen content decreases compared with LaNi5. The interactions between Sn and Ni with H play a dominate role in the stability of LaNi4.5Sn0.5-H system. Lattice expansion and increment of Fermi energy EF show that both Sn and H atoms decrease structural stability of these alloys.展开更多
