Abstract

This study uses the Density Functional Theory to explore the pressure dependent properties of hexagonal BeB2C. The metallic nature of BeB2C was substantiated at ambient pressure, with pressure induced alterations in electronic band structure and Fermi surface topology suggesting a potential for tunability across various applications. The phonon dispersion and phonon density of states show the dynamical stability under pressure. The thermophysical properties are also investigated under varying pressure conditions. Finally, the exploration of superconducting properties found that the transition temperature is in good agreement with previously reported values, and illustrated that beB2C holds considerable promise as a high-temperature superconductor, with pressure augmenting its superconducting properties.
