Based on the density functional theory with hybrid functional approach, we have studied the structural and thermodynamic stabilities of Cu2MSnX4 (M = Zn, Mg, and Ca; X = S and Se) alloy, and have further investigated the electronic and optical properties of stable Cu2MgSnS4 and Cu2MgSnSe4 phases. Thermal stability analysis indicates that Cu2MgSnS4 and Cu2MgSnSe4 are thermodynamically stable, while Cu2CaSnS4 and Cu2CaSnSe4 are unstable. The ground state configuration of the compound changes from kesterite into stannite structure when Zn atoms are substitued by larger Mg or Ca atoms. An energy separation between stannite and kesterite phase similar to that of CZTS is observed. Calculated electronic structures and optical properties suggest that Cu2MgSnS4 and Cu2MgSnSe4 can be efficient photovoltaic materials.

Dynamic second-order nonlinear susceptibilities, $chi^{(2)}(2omega,omega,omega)equiv chi^{(2)}(omega)$, are calculated here within a fully first-principles scheme for monolayered molybdenum dichalcogenides, $2H$-MoX$_2$ (X=S,Se,Te). The absolute valu
es of $chi^{(2)}(omega)$ across the three chalcogens critically depend on the band gap energies upon uniform strain, yielding the highest $chi^{(2)}(0)sim$ 140 pm/V for MoTe$_2$ in the static limit. Under this uniform in-plane stress, $2H$-MoX$_2$ can undergo direct-to-indirect transition of band gaps, which in turn substantially affects $chi^{(2)}(omega)$. The tunability of $chi^{(2)}(omega)$ by either compressive or tensile strain is demonstrated especially for two important experimental wavelengths, 1064 nm and 800 nm, where resonantly enhanced non-linear effects can be exploited: $chi^{(2)}$ of MoSe$_2$ and MoTe$_2$ approach $sim$800 pm/V with -2% strain at 1064 nm.
We have studied the pressure effect on the rattling of tetrahedrite Cu$_{10}$Zn$_{2}$Sb$_{4}$S$_{13,}$(CZSS) and type-I clathrate Ba$_{8}$Ga$_{16}$Sn$_{30,}$(BGS) by specific heat and x-ray diffraction measurements. By applying pressure $P$, the ratt
ling energy for CZSS initially decreases and steeply increases for $P$ $textgreater$ $1$ GPa. By contrast, the energy for BGS increases monotonically with $P$ up to 6.5 GPa. An analysis of the pressure dependent specific heat and x-ray diffraction indicates that the out-of-plane rattling of the Cu atoms in the S$_{3}$ triangle of CZSS originates from the chemical pressure, unlike the rattling of the Ba ions among off-center sites in an oversized cage of BGS. The rattling in CZSS ceases upon further increasing $P$ above 2 GPa, suggesting that Cu atoms escape away from the S$_{3}$ triangle plane.
The transition from topologically nontrivial to a trivial state is studied by first-principles calculations on bulk zinc-blende type (Hg$_{1-x}$Zn$_x$)(Te$_{1-x}$S$_x$) disordered alloy series. The random chemical disorder was treated by means of the
Coherent Potential Approximation. We found that although the phase transition occurs at the strongest disorder regime (${xapprox 0.5}$), it is still manifested by well-defined Bloch states forming a clear Dirac cone at the Fermi energy of the bulk disordered material. The computed residual resistivity tensor confirm the topologically-nontrivial state of the HgTe-rich (${x<0.5}$), and the trivial state of the ZnS-rich alloy series (${x>0.5}$) by exhibiting the quantized behavior of the off-diagonal spin-projected component, independently on the concentration $x$.
The compression of SH$_2$ and its subsequent decomposition to SH$_3$, presumably in a cubic Im$overline{3}$m structure, has lead to the discovery of conventional superconductivity with the highest measured and confirmed $T_c$ to date, 203 K at 160 GP
a. Recent theoretical studies suggest that a mixture of S with other elements of the chalcogen group could improve the superconducting temperature. Here, we present a detailed analysis of the thermodynamic properties of S and Se mixtures in the bcc lattice with Im$overline{3}$m symmetry using a cluster expansion technique to explore the phase diagram of S$_x$Se$_{1-x}$H$_{3}$. In contrast to earlier reports, we find that S$_{0.5}$Se$_{0.5}$H$_3$ is not stable in the pressure range between 150-200 GPa. However, phases at compositions S$_{0.2}$Se$_{0.8}$H$_3$, S$_{0.overline{3}}$Se$_{0.overline{6}}$H$_3$, and S$_{0.6}$Se$_{0.4}$H$_3$ are stable at 200 GPa, while additional phases at S$_{0.25}$Se$_{0.75}$H$_3$ and S$_{0.75}$Se$_{0.25}$H$_3$ are accessible at lower pressures. Electron-phonon calculations show that the values of $T_c$ are consistently lower for all ternary phases, indicating that mixtures of S and Se with H might not be a viable route towards compounds with improved superconducting properties.
During the past five years the low temperature heat capacity of simple semiconductors and insulators has received renewed attention. Of particular interest has been its dependence on isotopic masses and the effect of spin- orbit coupling in ab initio
calculations. Here we concentrate on the lead chalcogenides PbS, PbSe and PbTe. These materials, with rock salt structure, have different natural isotopes for both cations and anions, a fact that allows a systematic experimental and theoretical study of isotopic effects e.g. on the specific heat. Also, the large spin-orbit splitting of the 6p electrons of Pb and the 5p of Te allows, using a computer code which includes spin-orbit interaction, an investigation of the effect of this interaction on the phonon dispersion relations and the temperature dependence of the specific heat and on the lattice parameter. It is shown that agreement between measurements and calculations significantly improves when spin-orbit interaction is included.
