The mechanical properties of materials are determined by the interactions between defects found in the crystal. In a bicrystal of bimaterials, the result forces exercising on the matrix dislocation near and parallel to an ...

The objective of this work is a study of the structural properties (lattice parameters, total energy, bulk modulus) and electronic properties (band structure, density of states) of rare earth monochalcogenides LaX (X=Se, ...
