Abstract
The equations of state (EOS) and other thermodynamic properties of cubic boron nitride (C-BN) have been studied by the first-principles method under high pressure. Under ambient conditions, our results are consistent with the available experimental data and those calculated by others. At the same time, the dependences of Young’s modulus and the shear modulus of C-BN on pressure P are successfully obtained. Moreover, the variation of the Poisson ratio, Debye temperature, specific heat, and thermal expansion coefficient with pressure P up to 200 GPa at 300 K have been investigated for the first time by means of a quasi-harmonic Debye model, in which phononic effects are considered.
