中文摘要: 最近实验发现碱金属叠氮化物NaN3在高压下可以形成稳定的含有N-N单键的氮原子聚合物,是潜在的高能密度材料。因此,碱金属叠氮化物成为高压科学研究的新热点。项目组通过对NaN3的初步研究,在实验报道的压力附近发现单原子氮的聚合并给出了实验上尚未确定的单原子氮聚合物的晶体结构。因此,从理论上对碱金属叠氮化物AN3(A=Li, Na, K等)的高压研究有望获得创新成果。本项目拟采用第一性原理计算方法结合最新发展的基于粒子群优化算法的晶体结构预测技术,系统研究碱金属叠氮化物AN3在200 GPa压力范围内的高压结构,建立其高压相变序列,获得它们在高压下最终可能的单原子氮聚合物。通过系统分析AN3高压结构的晶格动力学性质、电子性质和化学成键等性质,揭示高压下AN3中N=N的分解机制,为实验上获得潜在高能密度材料金属叠氮化物提供重要的理论支撑。

英文摘要: Recent experiments have found that the alkali metal azide NaN3 formed a stable polymer including single N-N bonds under high pressure, which is potential high-energy density material. High-pressure studies on alkali metal azides are of special interest because of their use as a precursor to form a highly energetic polymeric (non-molecular) form of nitrogen. In our preliminary study for NaN3, the hitherto unexpected crystal structure of polymeric nitrogen was confirmed in the vicinity of the experimental pressure. Therefore, the high-pressure research on the alkali metal azide AN3 (A = Li, Na, K, etc.) is expected to get the original innovation. In this prospect, the project intends to extensively explore the crystal structures of AN3 in the range of 200 GPa and characterize the pressure-induced structural transition sequences, and then uncovers the ultimate form of polymeric nitrogen in AN3, using the first-principles calculations combined with the newly developed particle swarm optimization algorithm for crystal structure prediction. The systemic study of the lattice dynamical properties, electronic properties and chemical bonding nature of AN3 under high pressure would provide more insight into the decomposition mechanism of N=N. We expect that our calculations can provide important theoretical support for exp
