Popis: The structural, electronic, and mechanical anisotropy properties of ternary compounds B2CO in the oP8, tI16, and tP4 phases under pressure are systematically studied by density functional theory. The mechanical and dynamic stabilities are obtained within the pressure range of 0–50 GPa. The lattice parameters of oP8-B2CO, tI16-B2CO and tP4-B2CO are in excellent agreement with previous theoretical results. The electronic band structures of oP8-, tI16- and tP4-B2CO are all indirect and wide semiconductor materials with HSE06 hybrid functional. In addition, the band gaps of oP8-, tI16- and tP4-B2CO all increase with pressure. For mechanical anisotropy properties in Young's modulus, the tP4-B2CO exhibits the largest anisotropy under the pressure of 50 GPa while the tI16-B2CO exhibits the smallest one.
