Impact of d-states on transition metal impurity diffusion in TiN
Abstract In this work, we studied the energetics of diffusion-related quantities of transition-metal impurities in TiN, a prototype ceramic protective coating. We use ab-initio calculations to construct a database of impurity formation energies, vacancy-impurity binding energies, migration, and acti...
