Abstract :Using the first-principles technique, we systematically investigate the elastic, electronic, mechanical and optical properties of Al3 BC3 . The calculated structural parameters of Al3 BC3 are in agreement with the experimental results. Electronic structure calculations indicate that Al3 BC3 has a larger indirect band gap. Based on the first-principles model of intrinsic hardness, the theoretical hardness of Al3 BC3 is calculated to be 14.7 GPa, indicating a potential hard material. The analyses of electronic structure, charge density distribution and Mulliken overlap population provide further understanding of the hardness and C–B bonding properties of Al3 BC3 .
