Journal ArticleDOI
Superconductivity of metallic boron in MgB2.
TL;DR: Band structure calculations indicate that Mg is substantially ionized, and the bands at the Fermi level derive mainly from B orbitals, and MgB2 can be viewed as an analog of the long sought, but still hypothetical, superconducting metallic hydrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electronic properties of transition-metal nitrides: The group-V and group-VI nitrides VN, NbN, TaN, CrN, MoN, and WN.
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-consistent augmented-plane-wave calculations of the electronic structure of the group-V and group-VI transition-metal nitrides VN, NbN, TaN, CrN, MoN, and WN are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results of self-consistent bandstructure calculations and the measured Debye temperatures are used in conjunction with the theory of Gaspari and Gyorffy to determine the electron-phonon interaction and the massenhancement factor for 32 metals with $Z = 1$ to $Z=49$ as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Band structure and superconductivity of Pd D x and Pd H x
TL;DR: In this article, a study of the electronic band structure of the pailadium-hydrogen system was made using the augmented-plane-wave method and the results were performed self-consistently for two choices of the exchange parameters within the $X\ensuremath{\alpha}$ scheme.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential-induced breathing model for the elastic moduli and high-pressure behavior of the cubic alkaline-earth oxides
TL;DR: In this paper, a parameter-free model is presented for the elastic constants and high-pressure behavior of the alkaline-earth oxides MgO, CaO, SrO, and BaO.
