Based on first-principles calculations, the ground state configuration (Cmma-CH) of hydrogenated Biphenylene sheet (Science, 372, 852, 2021) is carefully identified from hundreds of possible candidates generated by RG2 code (Phys. Rev. B., 97, 014104, 2018). Cmma-CH contains four benzene molecules in its crystalline cell and all of them are inequivalent due to its Cmma symmetry. The hydrogen atoms in Cmma-CH bond to carbon atoms in each benzene with a boat-like (boat-1:DDUDDU) up/down sequence and reversed boat-1 (UUDUUD) sequence in adjacent benzene rings. It is energetically less stable than the previously proposed allotropes (chair, tricycle, stirrup, boat-1, boat-2 and twist-boat) of hydrogenated graphene, but its formation energy from hydrogenating Biphenylene sheet is remarkably lower than those for hydrogenating graphene to graphane. Our results confirm that Cmma-CH is mechanically and dynamically stable 2D hydrocarbon phase which is expectable to be experimentally realized by hydrogenating the synthesized Biphenylene sheet. The HSE06 based band structures show that Cmma-CH is an indirect band gap insulators with a gap of 4.645 eV.

We present results of electronic band structure, Fermi surface and electron transport properties calculations in orthorhombic $n$- and $p$-type SnSe, applying Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method and Boltzmann transport approach. The analysis accounted for
temperature effect on crystallographic parameters in $Pnma$ structure as well as the phase transition to $CmCm$ structure at $T_csim 807 $K. Remarkable modifications of conduction and valence bands were notified upon varying crystallographic parameters within the structure before $T_c$, while the phase transition mostly leads to jump in the band gap value. The diagonal components of kinetic parameter tensors (velocity, effective mass) and resulting transport quantity tensors (electrical conductivity $sigma$, thermopower $S$ and power factor PF) were computed in wide range of temperature ($15-900 $K) and, hole ($p-$type) and electron ($n-$type) concentration ($10^{17}-10^{21}$ cm$^{-3}$). SnSe is shown to have strong anisotropy of the electron transport properties for both types of charge conductivity, as expected for the layered structure. In general, $p$-type effective masses are larger than $n$-type ones. Interestingly, $p$-type SnSe has strongly non-parabolic dispersion relations, with the pudding-mold-like shape of the highest valence band. The analysis of $sigma$, $S$ and PF tensors indicates, that the inter-layer electron transport is beneficial for thermoelectric performance in $n$-type SnSe, while this direction is blocked in $p$-type SnSe, where in-plane transport is preferred. Our results predict, that $n$-type SnSe is potentially even better thermoelectric material than $p$-type one. Theoretical results are compared with single crystal $p$-SnSe measurements, and good agreement is found.
The electronic properties of hydrogenated graphenes are investigated with the first-principles calculations. Geometric structures, energy bands, charge distributions, and density of states (DOS) strongly depend on the different configurations and con
centrations of hydrogen adatoms. Among three types of optimized periodical configurations, only in the zigzag systems the band gaps can be remarkably modulated by H-concentrations. There exist middle-gap semiconductors, narrow-gap semiconductors, and gapless systems. The band structures exhibit the rich features, including the destruction or recovery of the Dirac-cone structure, newly formed critical points, weakly dispersive bands, and (C,H)-related partially flat bands. The orbital-projected DOS are evidenced by the low-energy prominent peaks, delta-function-like peaks, discontinuous shoulders, and logarithmically divergent peaks. The DOS and spatial charge distributions clearly indicate that the critical bondings in C-C and C-H is responsible for the diversified properties.
The properties of newly discovered polar ScFeO3 with magnetic ordering are examined using Ab initio calculations and symmetry mode analysis. The GGA+U calculation confirms the stability of polar R3c Phase in ScFeO3 and the pressure induced phase tran
sition to non-polar Pnma phase. Octahedron tilting and structural properties as a function of applied pressure have been analyzed. The origin of polar phase is associated with instability of non-polar R-3c phase and group theory using the symmetry mode analysis has been applied to understand this instability as well as the spontaneous polarization of polar R3c phase. The magnetic phase transition shows G-type AFM ordering of Fe3+ ion within Goodenough-Kanamori theory and the possibility of magnetic spin structure has been analyzed by using energy analysis including spin canting possibility.
First-principles calculations through a FLAPW-GGA method for six possible polymorphs of ruthenium mononitride RuN with various atomic coordination numbers CNs: cubic zinc blende (ZB) and cooperite PtS-like structures with CNs = 4; cubic rock-salt (RS
), hexagonal WC-like and NiAs-like structures with CNs = 6 and cubic CsCl-like structure with CN = 8 indicate that the most stable is ZB structure, which is much more preferable for RuN than the recently reported RS structure for synthesized RuN samples. The elastic and electronic properties of ZB-RuN were investigated and discussed in comparison with those for RS-RuN polymorph.
By means of first-principles calculations, the structural stability, mechanical properties and electronic structure of the newly synthesized incompressible Re2C, Re2N, Re3N and an analogous compound Re3C have been investigated. Our results agree well
with the available experimental and theoretical data. The proposed Re3C is shown to be energetically, mechanically and dynamically stable and also incompressible. Furthermore, it is suggested that the incompressibility of these compounds is originated from the strong covalent bonding character with the hybridization of 5d orbital of Re and the 2p orbital of C or N, and a zigzag topology of interconnected bonds, e.g., Re-Re, Re-C or Re-N bonding.
