Özet
The structural, electronic, optical, and vibrational properties of half-Heusler compound TiIrBi have been investigated by using the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) and GGA plus modified Becke and Johnson (GGA+ mBJ) functional within the Density Functional Theory (DFT). The obtained formation enthalpies and energy-volume curves for the three different atomic arrangements (α, β, and γ) show that γ phase is the most energetically favorable phase. Additionally, among the paramagnetic (PM), ferromagnetic (FM), and antiferromagnetic (AFM) magnetic systems considered for the γ-phase of this compound, the paramagnetic system is found to be the most stable. The spin-polarized electronic band calculations of the TiIrBi compound demonstrate that this material has a semiconductor nature in both the majority and minority spin channels with the direct bandgap of 0.56 and 0.87 eV using the GGA and …
