Ionic high-pressure form of elemental boron (2009)

Oganov, Artem R., Chen, Jiuhua, Gatti, Carlo, Ma, Yanzhang, Ma, Yanming, Glass, Colin W., ...

Boron is an element of fascinating chemical complexity. Controversies have shrouded this element since its discovery was announced in 1808: the new 'element' turned out to be a compound containing...

New high-pressure form of boron is significantly ionic (2009)

Oganov, Artem R., Chen, Jiuhua, Gatti, Carlo, Ma, Yanzhang, Ma, Yanming, Glass, Colin W., ...

The comment of Dubrovinskaia et al. is scientifically flawed. The high-pressure form of boron, discovered by Oganov et al., is indeed new and its bonding has a significant ionic character, as...

Density functional study of elastic and vibrational properties of the Heusler-type alloys Fe$_2$VAl and Fe$_2$VGa (2009)

Kanchana, V., Vaitheeswaran, G., Ma, Yanming, Xie, Yu, Svane, A., Eriksson, O.

The structural and elastic properties as well as phonon-dispersion relations of the Heusler-type alloys Fe$_2$VAl and Fe$_2$VGa are computed using density-functional and density-functional...

Ab initio investigation of optical properties of high-pressure phases of ice (2007)

Xu, Renjun, Liu, Zhiming, Ma, Yanming, Cui, Tian, Liu, Bingbing, Zou, Guangtian

We report a detailed ab initio investigation on the optical properties of ice under a wide high pressure range. The ice X phase (up to 380GPa), the theoretical proposed higher pressure phase ice XV...

Ab initio investigation of hydrogen bonding and electronic structure of high-pressure phases of ice (2007)

Xu, Renjun, Liu, Zhiming, Ma, Yanming, Cui, Tian, Liu, Bingbing, Zou, Guangtian

We report a detailed ab initio investigation on hydrogen bonding, geometry, electronic structure, and lattice dynamics of ice under a large high pressure range, including the ice X phase (55-380GPa),...

A new phase of solid iodine with different molecular covalent bonds

Zeng, Qifeng, He, Zhi, San, Xiaojiao, Ma, Yanming, Tian, Fubo, Cui, Tian, ...

There is a great interest in the behavior of diatomic molecular solids under extremely high-pressure conditions that lead to pressure-induced metallization, molecular dissociation, and formation of...
