Abstract
The recent observation of unusually high thermal conductivity exceeding 1000 W m-1 K-1 in single-crystal boron arsenide (BAs) has led to interest in the potential application of this semiconductor for thermal management. Although both the electron/hole high mobilities have been calculated for BAs, there is a lack of experimental investigation of its electronic properties. Here, a photoluminescence (PL) measurement of single-crystal BAs at different temperatures and pressures is reported. The measurements reveal an indirect bandgap and two donor-acceptor pair (DAP) recombination transitions. Based on first-principles calculations and time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry results, the two DAP transitions are confirmed to originate from Si and C impurities occupying shallow energy levels in the bandgap. High-pressure PL spectra show that the donor level with respect to the conduction band minimum shrinks with increasing pressure, which affects the release of free carriers from defect states. These findings suggest the possibility of strain engineering of the transport properties of BAs for application in electronic devices.

Abstract
The high-pressure behavior of non-metal nitrides is of special interest for inorganic and theoretical chemistry as well as materials science, as these compounds feature intriguing elastic properties. The double nitride α-BP3 N6 was investigated by in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) upon cold compression to a maximum pressure of about 42 GPa, and its isothermal bulk modulus at ambient conditions was determined to be 146(6) GPa. At maximum pressure the sample was laser-heated, which resulted in the formation of an unprecedented high-pressure polymorph, β-BP3 N6 . Its structure was elucidated by single-crystal XRD, and can be described as a decoration of a distorted hexagonal close packing of N with B in tetrahedral and P in octahedral voids. Hence, β-BP3 N6 is the first nitride to contain PN6 octahedra, representing the much sought-after proof of principle for sixfold N-coordinated P that has been predicted for numerous high-pressure phases of nitrides.

Abstract
Modern first-principles calculations predict that the thermal conductivity of boron arsenide is second only to that of diamond, the best thermal conductor, which may be of benefit for waste heat management in electronic devices. With the optimization of single-crystal growth methods, large-size and high-quality boron arsenide single crystals have been grown and thermal conductivity measurements have verified the related predictions. Benefiting from the increased size and improved qualities, additional properties have been characterized. Important factors related to boron arsenide, remaining challenges, and the future outlook are addressed in this minireview.

Abstract
We report on the prediction of the zinc-blende structure BP into a novel C2/m phase from 113 to 208 GPa which possesses zigzag phosphorus chain structure, followed by another P42/mnm structure above 208 GPa above using the particle-swarm search method. Strong electron-phonon coupling λ in compressed BP is found, in particular for C2/m phase with the zigzag phosphorus chain, which has the highest λ (0.56–0.61) value among them, leading to its high superconducting critical temperature Tc (9.4 K–11.5 K), which is comparable with the 4.5 K to 13 K value of black phosphorus phase I (orthorhombic, Cmca). This is the first system in the boron phosphides which shows superconductivity from the present theoretical calculations. Our results show that pressure-induced zigzag phosphorus chain in BP exhibit higher superconducting temperature TC, opening a new route to search and design new superconductor materials with zigzag phosphorus chains.

Abstract
In this paper, we investigate two- and one-dimensional honeycomb structures of boron antimony (BSb) using a first-principles plane wave method within the density functional theory. BSb with a two-dimensional honeycomb structure is a semiconductor with a 0.336 eV band gap. The vacancy defects, such as B, Sb, B + Sb divacancy, and B + Sb antisite disorder affect the electronic and magnetic properties of the 2D BSb sheet. All the structures with vacancies have nonmagnetic metallic characters, while the system with antisite disorder has a semiconducting band structure. We also examine bare and hydrogen-passivated quasi-one-dimensional armchair BSb nanoribbons. The effects of ribbon width (n) on an armchair BSb nanoribbon and hydrogen passivation on both B and Sb edge atoms are considered. The band gaps of bare and H passivated A-Nr-BSb oscillate with increasing ribbon width; this property is important for quantum dots. For ribbon width n = 12, the bare A-Nr-BSb is a nonmagnetic semiconductor with a 0.280 eV indirect band gap, but it becomes a nonmagnetic metal when B edge atoms are passivated with hydrogen. When Sb atoms are passivated with hydrogen, a ferromagnetic half-metallic ground state is observed with 2.09μB magnetic moment. When both B and Sb edges are passivated with hydrogen, a direct gap semiconductor is obtained with 0.490 eV band gap with disappearance of the bands of edge atoms.

Abstract
Due to its large pressure range of stability and inert nature, cubic boron nitride has been proposed as a potential pressure standard for high pressure experiments. It is extremely refractive upon compression, although its melting temperature is not known beyond 10 GPa. We apply first-principles molecular dynamics to evaluate the thermodynamics of zincblende structured (cubic) and liquid boron nitride at extreme temperatures and pressures, and compute the melting curve up to 1 TPa by integration of the Clapeyron equation. The resulting equations of state reveal that liquid boron nitride becomes denser than the solid phase at pressures of around 0.5 TPa. This is expressed as a turnover in the melting curve, which reaches a maximum at 510 GPa and 6550 ± 700 K. The origin of this density crossover is explained in terms of the underlying liquid structure, which diverges from that of the zincblende structured solid as the phases are compressed.

Abstract
Application has been made of first-principles total-energy band-structure theory to find the equilibrium states under constant pressure of the super-hard cubic diamond (cd) and hexagonal diamond (hd) structures of carbon (C), boron nitride (BN) and medium-hard silicon (Si). The absolute stability of the equilibrium state is found by determinations of the breakdown under pressure of several deformations of lattice parameters around the equilibrium state. The calculations show that the hd structures are much stronger than the cd structures. Thus the γ angle of the hd structure of both C and BN is stable for pressures greater than 20 Mbar while the γ angle of the cd structures breaks down at 13 and 11 Mbar respectively. Also the bulk moduli B of the hd structure of C and BN are substantially greater than the B values of the cd structure above 2 Mbar; the B values of hd structures of C and BN are 20% greater than cd structures at p = 20 Mbar. However the cd structures have greater stability relative to the hd structures as shown by a lower Gibbs free energy at pressures up to 20 Mbar. Comparison is made with the pressure dependences of the medium-hard crystals of Si in the same structures, which show notably different behavior.

Abstract
ABSTRACTWe present local density functional theory (DFT-LDA) studies of the structural properties of boron nitride in the layered hexagonal (h-BN), zincblende (c-BN), and wurtzite (w-BN) structures, performed using a fast implementation of the norm-conserving pseud-opotential plane-wave method. Quasiparticle band structures are then calculated for all phases by means of an efficient GW self-energy scheme. To our knowledge, these are the first GW quasiparticle calculations for wurtzite BN including local-field and dynamical screening effects. DFT-LDA band gaps as functions of pressure and uniaxial distorsion for h-BN are also discussed.

Abstract
In order to find a transition path from the zinc-blende to the NaCl type both structures are described with the aid of heterogeneous sphere packings. If all atoms in such crystal structures are replaced by like ones, atomic arrangements result that correspond to homogeneous sphere packings belonging to the diamond type or forming a cubic primitive lattice, respectively.It is shown, that a diamond configuration may be deformed into a cubic primitive lattice within the Wyckoff position Imma 4(e) mm2 0,¼,z. The corresponding phase transition in binary compounds from the zinc-blende to the NaCl type can be described as a deformation of a heterogeneous sphere packing in the subgroup Imm2 of Imma. Since no bonds have to be broken this type of transition is displacive.In addition, structural relations between high-pressure phases of semiconductors like silicon and germanium and related AB compounds are shown.
