Temperature Effects on the Elastic Constants, Stacking Fault Energy and Twinnability of Ni3Si and Ni3Ge: A First-Principles Study

The volume versus temperature relations for Ni 3 Si and Ni 3 Ge are obtained by using the first principles calculations combined with the quasiharmonic approach. Based on the equilibrium volumes at temperature T, the temperature dependence of the elastic constants, generalized stacking...
