Understanding the crystal structure, bonding and stability are crucial to explore the potential applications of an energetic material. In the present work, we made a detailed analysis of crystal structure, hydrogen bonding, equation of state and vibrational spectra of AN-IV using van der Waals density functional calculations. The obtained ground state properties are in good agreement with the experimental data. The calculated elastic moduli show that the AN-IV is mechanically stable. The computed elastic and equilibrium bulk moduli indicate the soft nature of this material. We have also calculated the zone center phonon frequencies. The crystal structure of AN-IV with Pmmn symmetry is found to be dynamically unstable at the center of the Brillouin zone within the harmonic approximation. Our calculations suggest that anharmonic effects play a major role in determining the stability of the energetic material under investigation. |
