Popis: | We report a phenomenological model based calculation of pressure-induced structural phase transition and elastic properties of ZrN compound. Gibb’s free energy is obtained as a function of pressure by applying an effective interionic interaction potential, which includes the long range Coulomb, van der Waals (vdW) interaction and the short-range repulsive interaction upto second-neighbor ions within the Hafemeister and Flygare approach. From the present study, we predict a structural phase transition from NaCl structure (B1) to the CsCl structure (B2). The variations of elastic constants with pressure follow a systematic trend identical to that observed in others compounds of NaCl type structure family. |
