Abstract
The formations of long-period superstructures strongly influence the properties of Al-rich L10-TiAl intermetallic alloys. To soundly understand the role of the superstructures in the alloys, fundamentals about them have to be known. In the present work, the structural, elastic, electronic and thermodynamic properties of h- and r-Al2Ti long-period superstructures under pressure up to 30 GPa were systematically investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. The pressure dependence of structural parameters, single-crystal elastic constants, polycrystalline elastic modulus, Cauchy pressures and elastic anisotropy were successfully calculated and discussed. The total and partial densities of states at different pressures were also successfully calculated and discussed. Furthermore, combining with quasi-harmonic approximation, the effects of the pressure on the temperature dependent volume, isothermal bulk modulus, thermal expansion coefficient, heat capacity and Gibbs free energy difference were successfully obtained and discussed. Our results were consistent with the available experimental and theoretical values.
