The structural, five different elastic constants and electronic properties of 2H- and 4H-Silicon carbide (SiC) are investigated by using density functional theory (DFT). The total energies of primitive cells of 2H- and 4H-SiC phases are close to each other and moreover satisfy the condition E2H >E4H. Thus, the 4H-SiC structure appears to be more stable than the 2H- one. The analysis of elastic properties also indicates that the 4H-SiC polytype is stiffer than the 2H structures. The electronic energy bands, the total density of states (DOS) are calculated. The fully relaxed and isotropic bulk modulus is also estimated. The implication of the comparison of our results with the existing experimental and theoretical studies is made.
Structural, Electronic and Gamma Shielding Properties of BxAl1-xAsIJMERJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: The structural and electronic properties of BxAl1-xAs ternary alloys in the zincblende structure were systematically investigated by using the first principles calculations. The local density approximation was used for exchanged and correlation interaction. The calculated band gap bowing parameter was discovered to be mightily composition dependent of the Boron concentration. Additionally, we have calculated some gamma shielding parameters of BxAl1-xAs ternary alloys. Primarily, the values of mass attenuation coefficients (μρ) were calculated using WinXCom computer program and then these parameters were utilized to calculate the values of electron density (Nel) and effective atomic number (Zeff) in the wide energy range (1 keV - 100 GeV).

We have investigated the pressure induced structural and electronic properties of plutonium pnictides (PuY, Y= P, As, Sb). The total energy as a function of volume is obtained by means of self-consistent tight binding linear muffin-in-orbital (TB-LMTO) method within the local spin density approximation (LSDA). From present study with the help of total energy calculations (spin polarized) it is found that PuP, PuAs and PuSb are stable in NaCl – type structure under ambient pressure. The structural stability of PuP, PuAs and PuSb changes under the application of pressure. We predict a structural phase transition from NaCl-type (B1-phase) to CsCl-type (B2-phase) structure for these Pu-pnictides in the pressure range of 20.8 – 42.0 GPa. We also calculate the lattice parameter, bulk modulus, band structure and density of states. From energy band diagram it is observed that all the three compounds exhibit metallic behaviour. The calculated equilibrium lattice parameters and bulk modulus are in good agreement with available experimental data.

The electronic structure and geometry optimization of ferrocene, cobaltocene and nickelocene molecules using DFT/B3LYP with the basis set of 6-31G (d) calculations. The Eigen values, Eigen vector and population analysis of the molecules show that the first 13 molecular orbitals in ferrocene, 12 in cobaltocene and 14 in nickelocene have contribution from 2pzorbitals of carbon of (C5H5)− and4s,4pand 3dorbitals of iron, cobalt or nickel, respectively. We found that the extents of involvement of metal orbitals in the three cases are different. In ferrocene the maximum involvement out of 4s and 4porbitals in the order 4pz >4py >4s > 4pxand out of 3d orbitals the order of involvement is 3dyz >3dxz >3d2z>3dx2−y2>3dxy.

In this paper, we have calculated the molar heat capacity for cubic zinc blende (cZB) BN and GaN binary semiconductors at high pressure-temperature (PT). For the calculation of heat capacity, we firstly obtained the Debye temperature (ϴD) variation with temperature and at higher temperature it becomes constant with temperature in quasi-harmonic approximation limits. We have also calculated the static Debye temperature (ϴD) from elastic constant for the both BN and GaN binary semiconductors. The elastic constants are calculated from the energy-strain relation using plane wave method in DFT approach. All the calculated results are well consistence with experimental and reported data

Microstructural and Dielectric Characterization of Sr doped Ba(Fe0.5Ta0.5)O3 ...theijes
Solid state reaction method was used to synthesize Ba1-xSrx(Fe0.5Ta0.5)O3 ceramic(x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5). The raw materials of making Sr doped Ba(Fe0.5Ta0.5)O3 were BaCO3, SrCO3, Fe2O3, Ta2O5 (purity better than 99%). Pellet and ring shaped samples prepared from each composition were sintered at 1400 and 1450ºC for 5 hour. The phase formation of Ba1-xSrx(Fe0.5Ta0.5)O3 was checked using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and observed a cubic perovskite crystal structure in space group Pm3m (221). Microstructure of the individual compound was examined by the field emission scanning electron micrograph (FESEM). Grain size was found to be varied with Sr content. The lattice parameter decreased with increasing Sr content. Dielectric spectroscopy was applied to investigate the electrical properties of BSFT at room temperature and in a frequency range of 100Hz–100 MHz. An analysis of the dielectric constant εʹ and loss tangent tan with frequency was performed assuming a distribution of relaxation times. The low frequency dielectric dispersion corresponds to the DC electrical conductivity.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

ABSTRACT
The structural, five different elastic constants and electronic properties of 2H- and 4H-Silicon carbide (SiC) are
investigated by using density functional theory (DFT). The total energies of primitive cells of 2H- and 4H-SiC
phases are close to each other and moreover satisfy the condition E2H >E4H
.
Thus, the 4H-SiC structure appears
to be more stable than the 2H- one. The analysis of elastic properties also indicates that the 4H-SiC polytype is
stiffer than the 2H structures. The electronic energy bands, the total density of states (DOS) are calculated. The
fully relaxed and isotropic bulk modulus is also estimated. The implication of the comparison of our results with
the existing experimental and theoretical studies is made.
Keywords –Elastic constants, Electronic structures, Structural parameters
I. INTRODUCTION
Silicon carbide (SiC) has a broad prospect of
potential applications in the field of high temperature,
high power and high frequency devices [1]. The
usefulness of SiC in these applications stems largely
from its superior mechanical and electronic
properties. Considering its electronic properties, SiC
is a semiconductor that can be doped, like silicon. It
is characterized by a large band gap, and a high value
of critical electric field. SiC is therefore used in high
power and high temperature devices as mentioned
earlier. SiC shows low chemical reaction with a good
resistance to corrosion, and therefore has potential
applications in harsh environment. Many compound
materials exhibit polymorphism, as they exist in
different structure called polymorphs. SiC is unique
in this regard as more than 250 polymorphs of silicon
carbide had been identified by 2006 [2]. The
structural, elastic and electronic properties on
different phases of silicon carbide have been carried
out by several groups by using several different
methods [3-10]. Among the SiC polytypes, 2H- and
4H-SiC attracting keen interest for their favorable
structural, elastic and electronic behavior. The 2H-
SiC structure is equivalent to that of wurtzite and is
composed of only elements A and B stacked as
ABABAB. The 4H-SiC unit cell is twice longer, and
the second half is twisted compare to 2H-SiC,
forming ABCB stacking [2]. The purpose of this
paper is to present first-principles calculations based
on DFT of the structural, elastic and electronic
properties of 2H- and 4H-SiC and comparing our
data with those of other’s works.
II. COMPUTATIONAL TECHNIQUES
The first-principles calculations reported herein
were performed using the Cambridge Serial Total
Energy Package (CASTEP) code [11], which is based
on the density functional theory [12] within the
plane-wave pseudopotential approach. The Kohn-
sham equations were solved using the Perdew-Burke-
Ernzorhof generalized gradient approximation (PBE-
GGA) [13] for the exchange-correlation energy.
Vanderbilt-type ultra soft pseudopotentials [14] were
used to model the electron-ion interactions.
Throughout the calculations, a plane-wave cutoff
energy of 600 eV was chosen to determine the
number of plane waves in expansion. The crystal
structures were fully relaxed by the BFGS
minimization technique [15]. Special k-points
sampling integration over the Brillouin zone was
employed by using the Monkhorst–Pack method [16]
with the 17×17×9 mesh. This set of parameters uses
the tolerance in the self-consistent field calculation of
2×10-6
eV/atom, the change in total energy of 2×10-5
eV/atom, the maximum force of 0.05 eV/Å, the
maximum stress of 0.1 GPa, and the maximum
atomic displacement of 0.002 Å.
The CASTEP calculates the elastic properties
from the first-principles using the finite strain theory
[17] which gives the elastic constants as the
proportionality coefficients relating the applied strain
to the computed stress, σi = Cij εj. From Cij, the
polycrystalline bulk modulus B and shear modulus G
were further evaluated using the Voigt-Reuss-Hill
approximation [18-20]. In addition, the Young’s
modulus Y, Poisson’s ratio v, and shear anisotropy
factor A were estimated using the equations Y =
(9GB)/(3B + G), v = (3B – 2G)/(6B + 2G) and A =
4C44/(C11 + C33 – 2C13), respectively.

III. RESULTS
3.1 Structural and elastic properties
The crystal structure of both 2H- and 4H-SiC are
hexagonal with space group P63mc (186) [21]. Fully
relaxed structure is achieved by optimizing the
geometry with lattice constants and internal atomic
positions. The optimized Si atoms are situated in the
2b Wyckoff site with fractional coordinates (1/3, 2/3,
0), and the C atoms are located in the 2b Wyckoff
site with fractional coordinates (1/3, 2/3, 3/8) for 2H-
SiC, and Si atoms are situated in the 2a Wyckoff site
with fractional coordinates (0, 0, 0), and 2b (1/3, 2/3,
1/4), and the C atoms are located in the 2a Wyckoff
site with fractional coordinates (0, 0, 3/16), and 2b
(1/3, 2/3, 7/16) for 4H-SiC [22].
The total energy, E of both 2H- and 4H-SiC has
been calculated at different cell volumes. The energy
was minimized as a function of the c/a ratio for
selected values of volume. Figure 1(a) and 1(b) show
the total energy per atom as a function of unit cell
volume, V. The total energy per atom of both 2H- and
4H-SiC structures are close to each other. However,
the total energy satisfy the condition E2H > E4H, which
implies that the 4H-SiC structure seems to be more
stable than the 2H- one. The calculated fully relaxed
equilibrium values of the structural parameters of the
two structures of SiC are listed in Table 1 together
with other available data on both theoretical [3] and
experimental [23-24] results. The comparison shows
that the calculated values in our study are in well
agreement with available experimental as well as
theoretical results.

The elastic constant tensors of 2H- and 4H-SiC
are listed in Table 2 along with available computed
[3,25] and experimental [26] elastic constants. Using
the second order elastic constants, the bulk modulus
B, shear modulus G, Young modulus Y (all in GPa),
Poisson’s ratio (v), and shear anisotropy factor A at
zero pressure are computed and presented in Table 2.
The bulk modulus B and shear modulus G of both
structures are high which is the indication of higher
hardness of these materials. The ductility and
brittleness of a material can be roughly characterized
by the value of the bulk modulus to shear modulus
(B/G) ratios. When B/G <1.75, the material is brittle,
and B/G >1.75 represents material is ductile. As it is
evident from Table 2, the calculated (B/G) ratios is
1.10 for 4H-SiC is almost same as 1.11 for 2H-SiC,
indicates that both materials are brittle in nature. The
same can be explained from an additional argument
that the ductility/brittleness of material can also be
characterized by the values of Poisson’s ratio (v).
However, Poisson’s ratio (v= 0.15) for both materials

are approximately same and express that both
polytypes are brittle since for ductile material v is
typically 0.33 [27]. The Young modulus, Y are 441
and 444 GPa for 2H- and 4H-SiC, respectively,
indicating that the 4H-SiC is slightly more stiffer
than 2H-SiC. It is noted that the Young modulus of
another polytype 3C-SiC is 347 GPa [4]. Thus the
stiffness of all 3C-, 2H- and 4H- SiC polytypes are
between Diamond-C (Y=1046.99 GPa) and Si (Y=137
GPa) [4].
3.2 Electronic properties
The electronic energy bands of 2H-, and 4H-SiC
along the high symmetry directions in the first
Brillouin zone are shown in Fig. 2 (a) and 2(b) in the
energy range -16 eV to + 8 eV. The zero of the
energy is set at the top of the valence band. The top
of the valence band of both 2H- and 4H-SiC is at the
A-point as shown in Fig. 2(a) and 2(b). Our
calculated valence bands of the occupied states of
4H-SiC, Fig. 2(b), are very close to the previously
reported results of ab initio LCAO calculations [28].
The conduction band is minimum at the K-point for
2H-SiC which is similar with theoretical result [7].
For 4H-SiC, the conduction band minimum is at the
M-point in our calculation. There is a second
minimum of the conduction band at the M-point,
which is only about 0.12 eV above the lowest
unoccupied state.
These results are consistent with the ballistic electron
emission microscopy study by Kaczer et al. [29] who
observed the second minimum of about 0.15 eV, and
ab intio LCAO calculation which is at 0.18 eV [8].
Thus, we conclude that the highest valence band for
the two polytypes 2H-, and 4H-SiC are very similar
whereas, as we have seen above, the lowest
conduction band structures differ considerably [7].
The energy band gap calculated in our data is 3.01 eV
for 2H-SiC which is good agreement with the
experimental data of 3.3 eV [9]. Our calculated value
differs from other theoretical result of band gap 2.11
eV [7]. The indirect band-gap from our calculated
electronic structure of 4H-SiC is 2.45 eV, which is
comparable to the theoretical data of 2.17 eV [7]. The
experimental value of the band gap is 3.26 eV [ 9].
The slight difference in the comparison of our data
with available both experimental and theoretical
results can be attributed to both computational and
experimental limitations. These limitations include
uncertainties introduced in the fit procedure in the
analysis of the experimental data and computational
uncertainties that include rounding errors.
The total and partial density of states of 2H-, and 4H-
SiC are shown in Fig. 3(a) and (b). The values of the
total DOS at the Fermi level is very small in both
structures. The shape of the DOS located between -20
to -10 eV are similar for both polytypes considered
here while those near the conduction band edge
changes appreciably [Fig. 3].
The slope of DOS at the conduction band edge
become steeper for 4H- SiC structure which look
similar to the self-consistent ab initio pseudopotential
calculations [30]. The value of the total DOS at the
Fermi level is 0.47 states per eV for SiC-4H phase
and that for SiC-2H phase is 0.17. Thus the value of
the total DOS at the Fermi level is slightly higher for
4H-SiC than that of 2H-SiC. Contribution to the total
DOS at the Fermi level for 4H-SiC comes from both
Si-3p and C-2p states. On the other hand for 2H-SiC
the DOS at the Fermi level comes mainly from 2p
states of carbon. Only the conduction band
contributes to the total DOS at the Fermi level for
both phases.

Fig. 2 (a) and (b) shows the electronic band structure
of 2H- (top) and 4H- SiC (bottom), respectively.
Density of states also reveals the types of
bonding of a solid, especially it detect the covalent
bonding. The steeper peak near the Fermi level at the
total DOS for 4H-SiC is due to the hybridization
between Si-3p and C-2p states. Thus a strong Si-C
covalent bond is observed for 4H-SiC. Same
phenomena also observed for 2H-SiC phase. But the
Si-C covalent bond of 4H-SiC is stronger than the Si-
C covalent bond of 2H-SiC.
IV. CONCLUSION
We studied the structural, elastic and electronic
properties of two polytypes 2H- and 4H-SiC. The
calculated lattice parameters and elastic properties
agree well with the available reported theoretical and
experimental data. The total energy calculations
minimized at different cell volumes by changing c/a

ratios for both 2H- and 4H- led us to satisfy the
condition E2H>E4H, which infer that the 4H-SiC
structure is more stable than 2H- one. The structural
stability maximized in 4H-SiC may be because of the
maximum attractive interaction between the stacking
layers. The analysis of the elastic properties indicates
that the 4H- structure is relatively stiffer than 2H-
structure. The electronic band structures and DOS of
2H- and 4H-SiC using the ab initio DFT are
calculated in the first Brillouin zone. The highest

valence band for the two polytypes 2H-, and 4H-SiC
are very similar whereas, the lowest conduction band
structures differ considerably as mentioned earlier.
Our calculated band gaps for both polytypes of SiC
agrees considerably well with reported theoretical
and experimental values. Our DOS calculations
shows that the slope of DOS become steeper for 4H-
SiC structure than the 2H- one at the conduction band
edge which can be attributed to the strong Si-C
covalent coupling of 4H- structure than those of 2H-
SiC.
