Popis: The structural stability of transition metal nitride (HfN) has been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) with the help of Quantum-espresso codes. Our calculations confirm that the hafnium nitride (HfN) is stable in zinc-blende (B3) and rock-salt (B1) type structure. We have also reported the structural and electronic properties of HfN compound. These structural properties have been compared with experimental and theoretical data available on this compound.
