Conventional Oxide dispersion strengthened steels are characterized by thermally stable, high density of Y-Ti-O nanoclusters, which are responsible for their high creep strength. Ti plays a major role in obtaining a high density of ultrafine particles of optimum size range of 2-10 nm. In Al-containing ODS steels developed for corrosion resistance, Y-Al-O clusters formed are of size range 20 -100 nm, and Ti fails in making dispersions finer in the presence of Al. Usage of similar alloying elements like Zr in place of Ti is widely considered. In this study, binding energies of different stages of Y-Zr-O-Vacancy and Y-Al-O-Vacancy complexes in the bcc Iron matrix are studied by first-principle calculations. It is shown that in all the stages of formation, Y-Zr-O-Vacancy clusters have higher binding energy than Y-Al-O-Vacancy clusters and hence in ferritic steel containing both Zr and Al, Y-Zr-O-Vacancy clusters are more stable and more favored to nucleate than Y-Al-O-Vacancy clusters. The bonding nature in each stage is analyzed using charge density difference plots for the plausible reason for higher stability of Y-Zr-O-Vacancy clusters.

Ab initio simulations carried out in different atomic cluster configurations in bcc Fe matrix containing Zr and Al suggest energetic favorability of Y-Zr-O phase nucleation, preferably with trigonal Y4Zr3O12 structure. Subsequently, the HRTEM investi
gation of the as-prepared Fe - 14 Cr-0.3 Y2O3 - 0.6 Zr - 4Al oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) alloy shows 78% of precipitates with Y4Zr3O12 structure, thereby confirming the predictive power of ab initio simulations on the secondary formation in multi-component alloys.
So far, the circular photogalvanic effect (CPGE) is the only possible quantized signal in Weyl semimetals. With inversion and mirror symmetries broken, Weyl and multifold fermions in band structures with opposite chiralities can stay at different ene
rgies and generate a net topological charge. Such kind of net topological charge can present as a quantized signal in the circular polarized light induced injection current. According to current theoretical understanding, RhSi and its counterparts are believed to be the most promising candidate for the experimental observation of the quantized CPGE. However, the real quantized signal was not experimentally observed to date. Since all the previous theoretical studies for the quantized CPGE were based on effective model but not realistic band structures, it should lose some crucial details that influence the quantized signal. The current status motives us to perform a realistic ab-initio study for the CPGE. Our result shows that the quantized value is very easy to be interfered by trivial bands related optic transitions, and an fine tuning of the chemical potential by doping is essential for the observation of quantized CPGE. This work performs the first ab-initio analysis for the quantized CPGE based on realistic electronic band structure and provides an effective way to solve the current problem for given materials.
We study the Raman spectrum of CrI$_3$, a material that exhibits magnetism in a single-layer. We employ first-principles calculations within density functional theory to determine the effects of polarization, strain, and incident angle on the phonon
spectra of the 3D bulk and the single-layer 2D structure, for both the high- and low-temperature crystal structures. Our results are in good agreement with existing experimental measurements and serve as a guide for additional investigations to elucidate the physics of this interesting material.
Based on first-principles calculation, it has been predicted that the magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) in Co-doped ZnO (Co:ZnO) depends on electron-filling. Results show that the charge neutral Co:ZnO presents a easy plane magnetic state. While modif
ying the total number of electrons, the easy axis rotates from in-plane to out-of-plane. The alternation of the MAE is considered to be the change of the ground state of Co ion, resulting from the relocating of electrons on Co d-orbitals with electron-filling.
