Prediction of four Si3N4 compounds by first-principles calculations
Four Si3N4 crystal structures were predicted using an ab initio evolutionary methodology. The mechanical and dynamic stabilities were confirmed by the density functional theory assuming zero-pressure conditions. Energetic stability calculations indicated that the structures are metastable phases at...
