Temperature - dependent Embedded-Atom-Method (EAM) function of hcp titanium have been determined by fitting to the lattice constants and elastic constants measured at various temperatures as well as by considering the universal Rose's relation.The EAM functions thus obtained satisfy the stable structure requirement and Cauchy discrepancy. This work shows that EAM functions do have temperature-dependence,and in the meanwhile it also provides EAM functions of titanium for the study of Ti-based metallic materials at various temperatures.

A mathematical model to represent the fluid flow, temperature distribution and mass transfer in CVD reactors has been developed. The model is used to predict the velocity, temperature, and molar concentration profiles in the tapered annulus of a reactor for silicon deposition from SiCl_4 in H_2. Results of the investigation contribute to the understanding of the transport pro- cesses involved in such a system. The model can also be used for optimizing the design parameters, such as inlet flow rate, susceptor tilt angle, etc.

Physical Review B
Body-centered-cubic (bcc) iron is one of the most investigated solid-state systems. Using four different density-functional methods, we show that there is a magnetic transition close to the ground-state volume of bcc Fe, which originates from the particular magnetic band structure. The common equation of state functions, used to determine the basic ground-state physical quantities from the calculated total energies, cannot capture the physics of this magnetic transition leading to serious underestimation of the Fe bulk modulus. Ignorance of the magnetic transition found here is reflected by large scatter of the published theoretical bulk moduli of ferromagnetic bcc Fe. Due to the low performance of the exchange-correlation functionals, most of the erroneous results are accidentally in good agreement with the experimental values. The present finding is of fundamental importance, especially taking into account that bcc Fe is frequently used as a test system in assessing the performance of exchange-correlation approximations or total-energy methods.

Noncollinear magnetic investigations of the ground state in PrFeAsO have been performed by the density-functional theory. We calculated the total energy and made structure optimization, and the electronic density of states of PrFeAsO was analyzed. There are three different magnetic structures in PrFeAsO defined by experiments. Based on these magnetic structures, we studied four collinear and four noncollinear cases. The ground state is found to take the ordering proposed by Zhao, in which the FeAs plane is of stripe antiferromagnetism and Pr spins are perpendicular to Fe spins. The electronic density of states indicates that for PrFeAsO the increase of the electron Coulomb interaction leads to a decrease in conductivity. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2011

Growth kinetics and interfacial morphologies of the intermetallic compounds (IMCs) between single crystal Ag and Sn-4Ag, Sn-3Cu and Sn-37Pb solders were investigated by solid-state aging at 160 degrees C and liquid-state aging at 260 degrees C. Isothermal equation of chemical reaction and phase diagrams were used to explain the effects of Ag, Cu and Pb on the growth kinetics of IMCs under solid-state and liquid-state aging conditions. The diffusion coefficients for the three solder joints of Sn-4Ag/Ag, Sn-3Cu/Ag and Sn-37Pb/Ag were calculated after solid-state and liquid-state aging. It is found that Pb can effectively retard the growth of IMCs during liquid-state aging but has little influence on the growth rate of IMCs during the solid-state aging. Some local small cracks were frequently observed in the Cu(6)Sn(5) particles near interfaces of the Sn-3Cu/Ag solder joints after solid-state aging for several days. However, there were no such local small cracks when solders or interfaces did not contain the Cu(6)Sn(5) particles after the same aging time. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The possible ferromagnetic ground state of pi-conjugated alternant hydrocarbon chains with unequal number of atoms on two sublattices is studied by the peierls-Hubbard model. Allowing for full lattice relaxation, a set of self-consistent iterative equations are established to study this system. The stabilities of the possible ferromagnetic ground states with respect to two kinds of unsymmetric site energies are also studied. We find that the ground state of the system is a stable ferromagnetic state as a result of the topological structure of the network and the electron-electron interaction. And the unsymmetric site energies, induced by substitutions, will severely weaken the stability of the ferromagnetic ground state.
