Abstract

The electronic structures and cohesive properties of the intermetallics Ni3V, Co3V, and Fe3V in the L12 structure have been studied using the self-consistent total energy linear muffin-tin orbital method based on the local density approximation. The simple rigid-band concept appears to be adequate to explain the structural stability of these compounds. Further,the structural stability of the pseudobinary compounds (Ni,Co,Fe)3V has been investigated based on the rigid-band scheme. The correlation between the electronic concentration and the crystal structure is shown to be related to the fill-up of the bonding states.
