Abstract

To research the structural stability of the solid hydrogen structures, the thermodynamic and dynamic properties of the solid hydrogen structures of II phase P63/m, P21/c, P63/mmc, Pca21 and III phase C2/c were calculated by first-principles calculations under 60~160 GPa. The results suggest that that only P63/m, C2/c and Pca21 are competitive structures. The Pca21, P63/m, and C2/c structures can stably exist in the pressure range 60~78, 78~90 GPa, and 116~160 GPa, respectively.
