Considering the phonon-phonon interactions, we obtain the high temperature phonons of Mo under high pressure. The dynamically stable regions of bcc and fcc Mo in the phase diagram are predicted. By comparing the anharmonic free energy, we determine the bcc-fcc boundary. The bcc Mo is the stable phase up to 700 GPa. Around 210 GPa, there is no bcc-fcc phase transition, which is different with the results from quasiharmonic approximation.
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.
