In this paper, we have studied the structural, elastic, electronic and thermodynamical properties of TiO by performing ab initio calculations within the local density approximation (LDA). In particular, the lattice constant, bulk modulus, cohesive energy, phase transition pressure (P t ) from NaCl (B1) to CsCl (B2) structure, second-order elastic constants (C i j ) and electronic band structures are calculated and compared with available experimental and other theoretical values. In order to gain further information, we have also predicted Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio (ν), anisotropy factor (A), sound velocities, Debye temperature (θ D ) and their pressure-dependent behaviours in the B1 phase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
