On the structure and bulk modulus of fluorite-type ru-dissolved ZrO2 solid solutions
Since the super-hard fluorite RuO2 reported in Science, much attention has been focused on the oxides in the structure. However, no any discussion has been found on the fluorite-type solid-solution in literature. In this paper, the changes of lattice, sublattice and the bulk modulus B with x in Zr1-xRuxO2 solid solutions were investigated as a function of composition by ab initio calculations. It is concluded that by the replacement Zr4+with Ru4+, the average bond lengths of M-O, O-O and M-M decreases with x in fluorite Zr1-xRuxO2, due to the introduction of small cation Ru4+. The average value LaverageO-O, LaverageM-O and LaverageM-M for the three bonds gradually decrease with the increasing of RuO2 but that they show different tendencies. After a comparison, it was found that the M-O bond is the most important one among others in the structure. As a result, Laverage M-O/LOM-O was chosen as a reasonable factor to describe the structural and the bulk modulus changes as the increasing of the fraction of RuO2. First principle, bulk modulus, bond length, thermodynamicity.
