摘要
A first-principles plane wave method with the ultrasoft pseudopotential scheme in the frame of the density functional theory (DFT) is performed to calculate the structural and lattice parameters, the bulk modulus B-0 and its pressure derivative B-0' of the zinc-blende AlAs, rocksalt AlAs and NiAs-AlAs. The elastic parameters of the zinc-blende AlAs, rocksalt AlAs and NiAs-AlAs were calculated. We also calculate the phase transition pressures between different phases. Our results are satisfactory. Our results are consistent with other results.
