The electronic and elastic properties of PdSc and PtSc intermetallic compounds are reported in this paper. These intermetallics crystallize in the CsCl (B2-type) structure. The ground state properties such as lattice constant a, bulk modulus B, and its pressure derivative B' are calculated. These results show good agreement with the experimental and other theoretical results. The elastic constants were calculated. Besides we have studied Murnaghan's equation of state to obtain thermodynamical quantity. The present intermetallics confirm their ductile nature. |
