Abstract:The structures, phase transition, mechanical properties, dynamic stability, and electronic properties of SnO polymorphs (α, γ, herzenbergite, B1, and B2 phases) under pressure have been studied using the first‐principles calculations. The obtained structural parameters are in agreement with the available data. According to the enthalpy–pressure curves of SnO, the pressure‐induced phase transitions are verified to be from α to γ at 0.94 GPa and from B1 to B2 at 49.1 GPa, respectively. The calculated elastic con… Show more
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.
