Holistic Exploration of Structural, Electronic, Magnetic, Transport, Mechanical, and Thermodynamic Characteristics, Including Curie Temperature Analysis.

Through intricate calculations, the density functional theory (DFT) implemented in the Wien2k code was employed to comprehensively investigate a wide range of material characteristics. Our study encompasses an exhaustive analysis of structural stability, electronic properties, magnetic behaviors, transport phenomena, mechanical responses, and thermodynamic profiles of two notable instances of filled Skutterudites, namely, CeNiP and DyCoSb, which have been thoroughly explored. These computations were performed using the WIEN 2K code, combining local orbitals and the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave approach. The findings provided insight into the wide range of properties of these materials. In this methodology, the exchange-correlation potential relies on the local-density approximation. We conducted the calculations with and without incorporating spin-orbit interactions. The results obtained provide information about the lattice constant, bulk modulus, and pressure derivative. The stability, as indicated by the P-V graphical plot, suggests that there are no structural phase transitions from the cubic symmetry structure. Notably, our work includes an examination of Curie temperatures, which are pivotal in understanding magnetic phase transitions. The validated elastic properties further support the material's stability and corroborate its ductile nature. These alloys should be considered for spintronic and thermoelectric applications due to their estimated transport characteristics and the observed ductile nature. To enhance our understanding of the thermal stability of antimony-based compounds, we have made reliable estimations of the thermophysical characteristics. By integrating theoretical insights with practical implications, we bridge the gap between fundamental understanding and material design applications. Using DFT in the Wien2k framework, we discover connections and patterns among different properties, showing how to create materials with specific functions and better performance. This approach not only advances our fundamental comprehension of materials but also promises innovation across various technological domains.
