Abstract
3D plots, and DOS analysis reveals metallic nature. Strong UV absorption and conductivity highlight their potential in UV-optical devices. Reflectivity above 60% and high IR reflectance suggest use in thermal coatings and solar heat management. Increasing Debye and melting temperatures under pressure further indicate their suitability for high-temperature applications. These findings support their use in extreme conditions such as aerospace, deep-sea exploration, and ultra-hard ceramic development.
