摘要
In this paper, we present the results of ab-initio band structure calculations based on the local approximation of the density functional theory for several hydrogen absorbing AB(5) compounds YNi5, LaNi5, LaCu5, and some substituted compounds such as LaNi4.5Al0.5, LaNi4Al, LaNi4Cu, LaN4.5Si0.5, LaN4.5Ge0.5, and LaN4.5Sn0.5. The calculated bulk moduli obtained by total energy minimizations are in satisfactory agreement with available experimental data. These results are used, in conjunction with electronic features such as band filling and Fermi energy characteristics, to discuss the relationship between compressibilities, electronic structure and H-absorption properties in Haucke compounds.
