| Abstract: |
This paper presents the mono-vacancy formation and migration energies of each element Ti, Ga, and C in the MAX phase Ti2GaC, which are obtained by first principles calculations. We also calculate the formation energies of oxygen substituting for Ti, Ga, and C and two formation energies of oxygen interstitial in different sites. The results show that the formation energy of oxygen substituting for Ti is the highest, and the formation energies of the O substitution for Ga atoms decrease as the oxygen concentration increases. The two different formation energies of one oxygen interstitial show that the stable site for the oxygen interstitial is at the center of the triangle composed by three Ga atoms. The effects of vacancy, oxygen substitution, and the interstitial on the electronic properties of Ti2GaC are also discussed in light of the density of states and the electron charge density.
