The first-principle method was used to investigate structural, elastic, and electronic properties of Cr2Al1-xSixC (x=0, 0.056, 0.111,0.167) to understand the solid strengthening mechanism. The calculated lattice constant (a and c) of Cr2AlC is in good agreement with the experimental results (within 2%), and the bulk modulus illustrates higher value after the incorporation of Si. Theoretical calculation of electronic properties reveals that the solid solution strengthening in Cr2Al1-xSixC is mainly caused by stronger hybridization bonds between Cr and Si atoms compared with those between Cr and Al atoms, leading to a denser electron charge distribution, higher bulk modulus, and also resulting in higher mechanical properties.
Keywords:First-principle; Cr2AlC; Solid strengthening; Electronic structure
