We report theoretical calculations based on ab initio total-energy calculations within the density functional theory to determine the structural, elastic, and electronic properties for several MoN phases. Among the five crystallographic structures that have been investigated, the hexagonal phases have been found to be more stable than the cubic ones. The calculated equilibrium structural parameters are in agreement with the available experiment results. It was found that delta(3)-MoN has the highest bulk modulus compared to the other structures studied here. Charge distributions and density of states are reported to understand the bonding in the different phases. Although MoN is a metal, we found that its bonding presents a large ionic component.
