Elastic constants of cubic crystals

TL;DR: The cubic-elastic as discussed by the authors is an open source software for the calculation of elastic constants (ECs) of cubic crystals, which can predict reliable results by using single deformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

First principle study of the structural and optoelectronic properties of cubic perovskites CsPbM3 (M=Cl, Br, I)

TL;DR: In this article, the highly accurate all electrons full potential linearized augmented plane wave method is used to calculate structural, electronic, and optical properties of cubic perovskites CsPbM3 (M=Cl, Br, I).
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural, electronic and optical properties of CsPbX3 (X=Cl, Br, I) for energy storage and hybrid solar cell applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential ability and use of perovskites as solar cells and energy storage materials were investigated using density function theory, generalized gradient approximation and modified Becke-Johnson (TB-mBJ) exchange potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seed Priming with Ascorbic Acid Improves Drought Resistance of Wheat

TL;DR: In this article, the role of seed priming with ascorbic acid (AsA) in drought resistance of wheat was evaluated, consisting of two independent experiments, and it was shown that osmopriming with AsA significantly improved the leaf emergence and elongation, leaf area, specific leaf area and root length and seedling dry weight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ab initio study of the bandgap engineering of Al1−xGaxN for optoelectronic applications

TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical study of Al1−xGaxN, based on the fullpotential linearized augmented plane wave method, is used to investigate the variations in the bandgap, optical properties, and nonlinear behavior of the compound with the change in the Ga concentration.
