The lattice parameters, bulk moduli and their pressure derivatives of these structures of CaN are also calculated. Our results are consistent with available experimental and other theoretical results. The dependence of the normalized formula-unit volume V/V0 on pressure P is also successfully obtained.展开更多

Using the relation between enthalpy and pressure, it finds that the transition phase from the B3 structural to the B] structural occurs at the pressure of l13.42GPa. Then the elastic constants Cll, C12, C44, bulk modulus, shear modulus, Young modulus, anisotropy factor, Kleinman parameter and Poisson ratio are discussed in detail for two polymorphs of BAs. The results of the structural parameters and elastic properties in B3 structure are in good agreement with the available theoretical and experimental values.展开更多

The properties of the topological states and phase transition, which depend on the cointeraction of the intracell and intercell hoppings, are investigated using the phase diagram of the winding number. It is shown that topological states with large positive/negative winding numbers can readily be generated in this system. The properties of the topological states can be verified by the ring-type structures in the trajectory diagram of the complex plane. The topological phase transition is strongly related to the opening(closure) of an energy bandgap at the center(boundaries) of the Brillouin zone.
