Electronic and bonding properties of MgH2-Nb containing vacancies

The magnesium hydride stability and bonding have been studied using density functional theory (DFT). To this aim, calculations on the electronic structure were performed. We also modeled the bulk hydride with a Nb atom as a substitutional impurity. Furthermore, both systems were modeled containing d...
