化合物SmCo5的电子结构、自旋和轨道磁矩及其交换作用分析

用自旋极化的MS-Xα方法研究了稀土-过渡族化合物SmCo5的电子态密度、自旋能级劈裂及原子磁矩.研究结果显示,由于化合物中Sm-Co间的轨道杂化效应,使Sm原子原来的5d0空轨道上占据了少量5d电子.由于Co(3d)-Sm(5d)电子间的直接交换作用,导致了Sm-Co间的磁性交换耦合,这是化合物中形成Sm-Co铁磁性长程序的一个重要原因.在SmCo5化合物中存在6个能级呈现负交换耦合,导致了SmCo5化合物的居里温度(与金属钴相比)明显下降.还研究了化合物中2c和3g晶位Co的自旋磁矩和轨道磁矩,发现Co(2c)晶位的自旋磁矩、轨道磁矩及冻结部分均略大于Co(3g)晶位,所以2c晶位的L-S耦合强度应略大于3g晶位.因此,2c晶位对SmCo5磁晶各向异性的影响也应大于3g晶位.但Co(2c)未被冻结的轨道磁矩却略小于Co(3g),所以两种晶位对磁晶各向异性的贡献大小之差别不应太大.考虑到4f电子的局域性和化合物中轨道杂化效应所导致的Sm(5d0)空轨道上占据了少量5d电子,可以得到Sm原子磁矩为1.29μB,与顺磁盐中Sm3+磁矩实验值(1.32-1.63uB)及金属中Sm原子磁矩实验值(1.74μB)基本符合.

阳离子空位磁矩起因探讨

运用群论和分子轨道理论的方法, 系统地研究了非掺杂磁性半导体中阳离子空位产生磁矩的原因, 并用海森堡模型阐明了磁矩之间的交换耦合机理. 研究发现: 阳离子空位磁矩的大小与占据缺陷能级轨道的未配对电子数有关, 而缺陷能级的分布与空位的晶场对称性密切相关; 通过体系的反铁磁状态和铁磁状态下的能量差估算交换耦合系数J₀, 交换耦合系数J₀的正负可以用来预测磁矩之间的耦合是否为铁磁耦合:J₀>0, 则表明磁矩之间的耦合为铁磁耦合, 反之为反铁磁耦合. 最后指出空位的几何构型发生畸变(John-Teller效应)的原因: 缺陷能级轨道简并度的降低与占据缺陷能级轨道的电子的数目有直接的关系.

单层GaSe表面Fe原子吸附体系电子自旋性质调控

Ⅲ族金属单硫化物因其优越的光电和自旋电子特性而备受关注,实现对其自旋性质的有效调控是发展器件应用的关键.本文采用密度泛函理论系统地研究了GaSe表面Fe原子吸附体系的几何构型及自旋电子特性.Fe/GaSe体系中Fe吸附原子与最近邻Ga,Se原子存在较强的轨道耦合效应,使体系呈现100%自旋极化的半金属性.其自旋极化贡献主要来源于Fe-3d电子的转移及Fe-3d,Se-4p和Ga-4p轨道杂化效应.对于Fe双原子吸附体系,两Fe原子之间的自旋局域导致原本从Fe转移至GaSe的自旋极化电荷量减少,从而费米能级附近的单自旋通道转变为双自旋通道,费米能级处的自旋极化率转变为0.研究结果揭示了Fe_n/GaSe吸附体系自旋极化特性的形成和转变机制,可为未来二维自旋纳米器件的设计与构建提供参考.

掺杂MgCNi3超导电性和磁性的第一性原理研究

从第一性原理出发，计算了MgCNi₃的电子能带结构.MgCNi₃中C 2p与Ni 3d轨道杂化使穿梭费米面上的Ni 3d能带表现出平面性，费米面落在态密度范霍夫奇异(vHs)峰的右坡上.vHs峰上大的电子态密度和铁磁相变点附近的自旋涨落是决定MgCNi₃超导电性的重要因素.研究了三种替代式掺杂对其超导电性和磁性的影响，发现电子掺杂使费米能级下滑到态密度较低的位置，导致体系转变为无超导电性的顺磁相；同构等价电子数的金属间化合物的轨道杂化，引起费米面上态密度的减少，降低了超导电性；而空穴掺杂使费米面向vHs峰值方向移动，虽然费米面上电子态密度增大可能提高超导电性，但增强了的Ni原子磁交换作用产生铁磁序，破坏了超导电性. 关键词： 电子结构 超导电性 磁性 掺杂

Electronic structure and magnetic properties of metastable SmCo_7 compound

1 Introduction The rare-earth transition-metal intermetallic compounds have been widely investi-gated for many years, among them the Sm-Co series compounds with 1:5 and 2:17 crys-tal structures. These compounds have been used as sintered and bonded permanent magnets since the 1960s[1,2]. Interest recently has been focused on the TbCu7-type struc-ture Sm-Co intermetallic compounds with a strong uniaxial magnetocrytalline anisot-ropy and a low temperature coefficient (β = ?0.11%)[3―6] due t…     

Electronic structure and magnetic properties of SmCo7-x Tix

Electronic structure of SmCo7-xTix alloy has been studied by means of the spin-polarized MS-X( method. It is shown that a few of electrons are transferred to Sm(5d) orbital due to orbital hybridization between Sm and Co atoms. The exchange interaction between 5d-3d electrons is stronger, which is the main reason resulting in the long-range ferromagnetic order between Co and Sm atoms. The Curie temperature of SmCo7-xTix is generally lower than that of pure Co metal, which may be explained by the weaker average of coupling strength between Co sites due to some negative exchange couplings occurring mainly at 2e site. The calculated results for the Sm5Co28Ti6 cluster may lead to a better understanding of why SmCo7-xTix is stable phase. Since the negative interaction of 2e sites weakens and the bonding at EF strengthens with increasing Ti concentration, which result in the decrease in the free energy of the alloy, the stable ferromagnetic order forms inside SmCo7-xTix. Considering the localization of 4f states and 5d moment arising from the orbital hybridization, the calculated moment is 9.47μB per formula unit that is in agreement with experiments.     

Electronic structure and magnetic properties of metastable SmCo<Subscript>7</Subscript> compound

The electronic density of states, spin-splittings and atomic magnetic moments of SmCO₇-compound have been studied using spin-polarized MS-Xα method. The results show that a few of electrons are transferred to Sm(5d⁰) orbital because of orbital hybridization between Sm and Co atoms in the compound. The exchange interactions between 3d and 5d electrons lead to the magnetic coupling between Sm and Co, and therefore, result in the long-range ferromagnetic order inside the SmCo₇ compound. There are negative exchange couplings occurring at some levels, which weakens the strength of average coupling around Co lattice. So, the Curie temperature and Co-moment of SmCo₇-decrease distinctly compared with pure Co. Compared with SmCo₅ compound, the disordered substitution of Co-Co “dumbbell-atom” pairs for Sm changes the local environment of Co lattice, which makes the 2e site bear negative magnetic moment. The strength of hybridization near Fermi level weakens and the free energy of the compound increases obviously. Thus, SmCo₇ is a metastable compound at room temperature. Considering the localization of 4f electrons and a few of 5d electrons arising from the orbital hybridization, the magnetic moment of Sm atom will be 1.61μ_B in SmCo₇ compound, which is in agreement with the experimental values of Sm³⁺ ion-moment and Sm atom-moment in metals.     

Electronic structure and magnetic properties of SmCo7?xTix

Electronic structure of SmCo_7−x Ti_x alloy has been studied by means of the spin-polarized MS-Xα method. It is shown that a few of electrons are transferred to Sm(5d) orbital due to orbital hybridization between Sm and Co atoms. The exchange interaction between 5d-3d electrons is stronger, which is the main reason resulting in the long-range ferromagnetic order between Co and Sm atoms. The Curie temperature of SmCo_7−x Ti_x is generally lower than that of pure Co metal, which may be explained by the weaker average of coupling strength between Co sites due to some negative exchange couplings occurring mainly at 2e site. The calculated results for the Sm₅Co₂₈Ti₆ cluster may lead to a better understanding of why SmCo_7−x Ti_x is stable phase. Since the negative interaction of 2e sites weakens and the bonding at E _F strengthens with increasing Ti concentration, which result in the decrease in the free energy of the alloy, the stable ferromagnetic order forms inside SmCo_7−x Ti_x. Considering the localization of 4f states and 5d moment arising from the orbital hybridization, the calculated moment is 9.47 μ _B per formula unit that is in agreement with experiments.     

On the origin of ferromagnetism in semiconducting TiO2−δ:Co oxide

In Co-doped TiO_2?δ oxide films deposited on SrTiO₃(100) substrates, a room-temperature ferromagnetism is found to occur only in a limited charge-carrier concentration interval from 2×10¹⁸? 5×10²² cm^?3. This indirectly testifies that ferromagnetism in the aforementioned n-type semiconductor is associated with the exchange interaction of magnetic ions via conduction electrons rather than with the formation of Co clusters in the material. The magnetic moment per Co atom is 0.8μ_B in the TiO cubic phase and 0.5μ_B in the anatase tetragonal phase of TiO₂.     

Field induced magnetic density in the Pauli paramagnet YNi5

The induced magnetic density of the enhanced Pauli paramagnet YNi₅ has been measured by polarized neutron diffraction at 100 K and in an applied field of 48 kOe. The magnetic density is localized on Ni sites where a 3d form factor, similar to that of Ni metal, is observed. The induced Ni moment is different for the two crystallographic sites: (2.4 ± 0.6) × 10^-3 μ_B on Ni_I on the 2c site and (4.1 ± 0.8) × 10^-3 μ_B on Ni_II on the 3g site. This difference must be associated with the difference of the Y surroundings of each site. The results are discussed from the band structure of the alloy.     

Correlation between valence electronic structure and magnetic properties in RCo_5(R=rare earth) intermetallic compound

The magnetisms of RCo_5(R = rare earth) intermetallics are systematically studied with the empirical electron theory of solids and molecules(EET).The theoretical moments and Curie temperatures agree well with experimental ones.The calculated results show strong correlations between the valence electronic structure and the magnetic properties in RCo_5 intermetallic compounds.The moments of RCo_5 intermetallics originate mainly from the 3d electrons of Co atoms and 4f electrons of rare earth,and the s electrons also affect the magnetic moments by the hybridization of d and s electrons.It is found that moment of Co atom at 2c site is higher than that at 3g site due to the fact that the bonding effect between R and Co is associated with an electron transformation from 3d electrons into covalence electrons.In the heavy rare-earth-based RCo_5 intermetallics,the contribution to magnetic moment originates from the 3d and 4f electrons.The covalence electrons and lattice electrons also affect the Curie temperature,which is proportional to the average moment along the various bonds.     

Electronic Structure and Magnetic Properties of SmCo7-xZrx

The electronic structure and magnetism of SmCo_7-xZr_x alloy are investigated using the spin-polarized MS-X. method. The results show that a few of electrons are transferred to the Sm(5d⁰) orbital due to orbital hybridization between Sm and Co atoms. The exchange interactions between 3d and 5d electrons are more important than the polarization effects of the conductive electrons, thus it is the main reason resulting in the long-range ferromagnetic order in SmCo_7-xZr_x. The Curie temperature of SmCo_7-xZr_x is generally lower than that of corresponding pure Co, which may be explained by the weaker average coupling strength between Co lattices due to some negative couplings mainly occurring of 2e site. The calculated results for the Sm₅Co₃₂Zr₂ cluster may lead to a better understanding of why SmCo_7-xZr_x is stable phase. Since the spin-up DOS peak of d electrons at E_F arises and the bonding of electrons at E_F strengthens with increasing Zr concentration, which results in the internal energy of the system decrease, the stable ferromagnetic order forms in SmCo_7-xZr_x.
