โฆ Synopsis
The ground state properties of eta M 3 W 3 C (M =Fe, Co, Ni) compounds are discussed in this paper. The characteristics of chemical bonding and full set of elastic constants were calculated by first-principles calculations. The calculated formation enthalpy values indicate that they are thermodynamically stable structures. The Fermi surface is dominated by d bands of W and M, and the whole structures have metallic nature. The calculated bulk modulus values range from 338.6 to 376.9 GPa, larger than Fe 3 C, Fe 2 B, and Cr 7 C 3 . The population analysis reveals the attractive interactions for M 3 W 3 C are dispersed in the whole crystals.
