Pressure-induced enhancement of mechanical performance in ZrC system

Superhard materials are indispensable for use in cutting and polishing, as well as for nuclear reactor construction. As a candidate for hard material, ZrC has been extensively studied but not in its pressurized phase. Through evolutionary algorithm and density functional theory, we narrowed down the...
