Two B2CO phases with different hybridizations were predicted, and high pressure technology could be an important method for synthesis. These phases have high hardness and large mechanical modulus.
Two B2CO phases (oP8 ' with sp(2)-sp(3) hybridization coexist and mP16 with unitary sp(3) hybridization) were predicted via structure searching and stability analysis. The study of formation enthalpy reveals that high pressure (HP) technology performed maybe an important method for synthesis. oP8 ' and mP16 both have large mechanical modulus and they are typical materials with high hardness. Pressure has a positive correlation with its mechanical modulus. The simulated tensile stress-strain relationship reveals that the maximum stress that oP8 ' can bear is 64.7 GPa in the direction [100], and the maximum tensile is 0.24. Among all isoelectronic with diamond (IED) B-C-O phases, oP8 ' has the smallest gap and mP16 has the widest gap. With pressure increasing, for B2CO phases with high symmetry and composed of sp(3) hybridization, their band gaps all increases monotonically; for B2CO phases composed by sp(3)-sp(2) hybridization coexist or with low symmetry like mP16, their band gaps increased first and then decreased.
