Abstract
The elastic properties and generalized stacking fault energy curves of antiperovskite-type Ni-rich nitrides MNNi3 (M = Zn, Cd) under different pressure have been obtained from the first-principles calculations. By using the variational method, the core width and Peierls stresses of \(\frac {1}{2}\langle 110\rangle \{110\}\) edge dislocation and screw dislocation in ZnNNi3 and CdNNi3 within the improved Peierls-Nabarro (P-N) model in which the lattice discrete effect is taken into account have been investigated. Whatever the material or the pressure range, the Peierls stress of edge dislocation is smaller than that of screw dislocation. This also demonstrates that the edge dislocation is considered to be the dominant factor in determining the plastic behavior of MNNi3 (M = Zn, Cd) in the pressure range of 0–30 GPa.
