First-principles calculations of the structural, mechanical, electronic and bonding properties of (CrB2)n CrAl with n = 1, 2, 3

Cr2AlB2, Cr3AlB4 and Cr4AlB6 crystals are considered metallic compounds. Cr4AlB6 should have more electron carriers than Cr2AlB2 and Cr3AlB4. A small increase of electronic carriers was observed for the slab models. QTAIM analysis confirms the covalency of BB bonds, the ionicity of AlB bonds.
