Effect of low-valent atom substitution on electronic structure and magnetic properties of Fe1.5M0.5CoSi (M=V, Cr, Mn, Fe) Heusler alloys

Quaternary Heusler alloys Fe_1.5M_0.5CoSi with M=V, Cr, Mn and Fe have been investigated theoretically and experimentally. All of these samples crystallize in the ordered Heusler-type structure. The calculated electronic structure shows a pseudogap around E_F in the minority spin states of Fe₂CoSi. With the substitution of low-valent atoms for Fe, the majority antibonding peak is shifted to higher energy and a minority gap around the Fermi level is opened. High spin polarization ratio is obtained in Fe_1.5M_0.5CoSi (M=V, Cr, Mn) alloys. The calculated total spin moments decrease with decreasing number of valence electrons and follow the Slater-Pauling curve, which agree with the experimental results well. The Curie temperature decreases as M atom varies from Fe to V, but is always higher than 650 K, which is suitable for technical applications.     

First-principles study on the magnetism and electronic structure in 3d transition metal (X=Sc,V, Cr,Mn, Fe,Ni, Cu) doped CoO

We have studied the electronic structure and magnetism of the single transitional metal element X=Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu-doped CoO systems by first-principles calculations. At X=Sc, Cr, Cu, the binding energy of the doped systems is lower than pure CoO, suggesting that these systems are energetically stable. In the Sc, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu-doped 2×2×2 CoO supercells, the total magnetic moments are 3.03, 5.64, 6.80, 7.70, 6.93, 2.30 and 1.96 μ_B, respectively. At X=Cr and Fe, the doped CoO systems are half-metallic with a high spin polarization. The large magnetic moment and high spin polarization in the Cr and Fe-doped CoO are important for the design of the spintronic devices.

First-principles linear muffin-tin orbital investigations in the electronic and magnetic structures of double perovskites Ba2TMoO6 (T=V,Cr, Mn,Fe and Co)

The electronic and magnetic structures of ordered double perovskites Ba₂TMoO₆ (T=V, Cr, Mn, Fe and Co) are systematically investigated by means of the first-principle linear muffin-tin orbitals with the atomic-sphere approximation (LMTO-ASA) method. The calculations are performed by using the both local spin density approximation (LSDA) and the LSDA+U Coulomb interaction schemes. The results show a half-metallic ferrimagnetic ground states for T=Cr, Fe and Co in LSDA+U treatment, whereas half-metallic ferromagnetic character is observed for T=V. For T=Mn, insulating ground state is obtained, stabilized in the antiferromagnetic state. The LSDA+U calculations yield better agreement with the theoretical and the experimental results than do the LSDA.     

Magnetic and electronic properties of Cr,Mn, and Fe adatoms on Si(001): A first-principles study

The magnetic and electronic properties of TM (TM=Cr, Mn, and Fe) adatoms adsorption on Si(001) surface are studied by means of the first-principles method. For the adsorption of a single TM atom on Si(001), we obtain decreasing spin moments and increasing adsorption energies as TM varies from Cr to Fe. In the case of TM dimers adsorption, the calculated results show that the spin coupling changes from antiferromagnetic (AFM) to ferromagnetic (FM) as the 3d electrons increased. AFM coupling is found to be preferred for Cr, while FM coupling is energetically favorable for Mn and Fe. In the case of TM wires, we find that the FM state is energetically preferred for Mn and Fe atoms on the Si(001) surface, while for Cr wires, the up–down–up state for P–M–M site Cr atoms seems to be more energy favorable. We also find that the silicon surfaces become metallic for the adsorption of TM wires.     

Survey of intermediate band material candidates

A systematic ab initio study, using the local spin density approximation, of the electronic properties of Ga_xP_yM compounds, where M is a transition metal substituting Ga or P atoms in a GaP host semiconductor lattice is presented. This study is oriented towards the early identification of intermediate band materials of recent interest as new photovoltaic materials to exceed the efficiency of single gap and even tandems of two solar cells. M=Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn have been explored as transition metals and Sc, V, Cr, and Fe in Ga₃₂P₃₁M and Cr in Ga₃₁P₃₂M have exhibited the desired intermediate band.

Electronic structure and half-metallicity in Heusler alloys Fe2YB (Y=Ti, V, Mn, Cr)

The electronic structure and magnetic properties of B-based Heusler alloys Fe₂YB (Y=Ti, V, Cr and Mn) have been studied theoretically. These alloys are all ferrimagnets except for Fe₂VB. The latter has 24 valence electrons and is a paramagnetic semimetal. Fe₂CrB is predicted to be half-metals at equilibrium lattice constant. The spin polarization of Fe₂MnB is also quite high. The calculated total moments are 1.00 μ_B for Fe₂CrB and 2.04 μ_B for Fe₂MnB. In Fe₂CrB and Fe₂MnB, the total moments are mainly determined by the partial moment of Cr or Mn. The Fe moment is relatively small and antiparallel to that of Cr or Mn. Under uniform lattice distortion, the half-metallicity of Fe₂CrB is more stable than Fe₂MnB, which is related to the detailed DOS structure of them near E_F.     

Spin glass behavior in the new amorphous alloys M2SnTe4 (M=Cr,Mn, Fe)

The amorphous alloys M₂SnTe₄ (M=Cr, Mn, Fe) are prepared by a new method involving the oxidation of main group polyanions (Zintl anions) by transition metal cations in solution at or below room temperature. The M₂SnTe₄ materials undergo a transition to a spin glass state at 12 K ? T_f ? 20 K and were characterized by dc magnetization, ⁵⁷Fe and ¹¹⁹Sn Mossbauer and x-ray diffraction measurements as well as the behavior of the remanent magnetization.     

Controlling spin off state by gas molecules adsorption on metal-phthalocyanine molecular junctions and its possibility of gas sensor

Employing Green's function (GF) technique in combination with spin-polarized density functional theory (DFT), we study the electronic structure and magnetic properties of metal phthalocyanine (MPc) (M?=?Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) with or without four different gas molecules (NO, CO, O₂ and NO₂) adsorbing on the M atom of MPc molecule. The corresponding stable adsorption structural configurations and transport properties of MPc molecular junctions are also investigated. Our results indicate that the magnetic moment of MPc for M?=?Mn, Fe and Co can be modified by the specific gas molecule adsorption, which is mainly ascribed to competitive relation of HOMO-LUMO Gap and Hund's rules. However, for M?=?Ni, Cu and Zn, it is difficult to detect gas molecule because the interaction of M atom and these gases is most of weak van der Waals interaction. Remarkably, the spin of MPc molecule can be switched to a magnetic off-state by specific gas absorption, giving rise to a potential application on controllable spintronic devices. In addition, CO, NO, O₂ and NO₂ gas molecules can be detected selectively by measuring spin filter efficiency of these MPc molecular junctions. On the basis of our results, MPc (M?=?Mn, Fe, Co) molecular junctions can be considered as a promising nanosensor device to detect individual gas molecules.     

Structural and magnetic properties of Ti12M clusters (M=Sc to Zn)

The geometries, electronic, and magnetic properties of the 3d atom doped icosahedron (ICO) Ti₁₂M (M=Sc to Zn), where a dopant atom replaces either the centra l(Ti₁₂M^c) or surface (Ti₁₂M^s) Ti atom in ICO Ti₁₃ cluster, have been systematically investigated by using the density functional theory. The structures of all the optimized Ti₁₂M^c and Ti₁₂M^s clusters are distorted ICO. Sc, Ni, Cu, and Zn atoms prefer to displace surface Ti atom, V, Cr, Mn, and Fe atoms prefer to displace central Ti atom. The position of impurity atom depends on the strength of the interaction between the central atom and the surface atoms. As compared to the pure Ti₁₃ cluster, Ti₁₂M^c and Ti₁₂M^s (M=V, Fe, Co, and Ni) clusters are more stable, Ti₁₂M^c and Ti₁₂M^s (M=Sc, Cr, Mn, Cu, and Zn) are less stable. Both Ti₁₂Ni^s and Ti₁₂Ni^c are magic clusters, which originate from their electronic as well as geometric closed shells. Because the exchange interaction prevails over the crystal field in Ti₁₂M clusters, the valence electrons fill molecular orbitals in terms of Hund’s rule of maximum spin.     

Spin relaxation of Mn ions in (CdMn)Te/(CdMg)Te quantum wells under picosecond optical pumping

Spin relaxation of Mn ions in a Cd_0.97Mn_0.03Te/Cd_0.75Mg_0.25Te quantum well with photogenerated quasi-two-dimensional electron-hole plasma at liquid helium temperatures in an external magnetic field has been investigated. Heating of Mn ions by photogenerated carriers due to spin and energy exchange between the hot electron-hole plasma and Mn ions through direct sd-interaction between electron and Mn spins has been detected. This process has a short characteristic time of about 4 ns, which leads to appreciable heating of the Mn spin subsystem in about 0.5 ns. Even under uniform excitation of a dense electron-hole plasma, the Mn heating is spatially nonuniform, and leads to formation of spin domains in the quantum well magnetic subsystem. The relaxation time of spin domains after pulsed excitation is measured to be about 70 ns. Energy relaxation of excitons in the random exchange potential due to spin domains results from exciton diffusion in magnetic field B=14 T with a characteristic time of 1 to 4 ns. The relaxation time decreases with decreasing optical pump power, which indicates smaller dimensions of spin domains. In weak magnetic fields (_B=2 T) a slow down in the exciton diffusion to 15 ns has been detected. This slow down is due to exciton binding to neutral donors (formation of bound excitons) and smaller spin domain amplitudes in low magnetic fields. The optically determined spin-lattice relaxation time of Mn ions in a magnetic field of 14 T is 270±10 and 16±7 ns for Mn concentrations of 3% and 12%, respectively. Zh. éksp. Teor.

Structural and magnetic properties of MoS2 monolayer zigzag nanoribbon doped by Ti,V, Cr,and Mn

In order to find new functions of monolayer MoS₂ in nanoelectronics or spin electronic devices, using spin-polarized density functional theory (DFT) calculations with on-site coulomb interaction (U), we investigated substitutional doping of Mo atoms of monolayer zigzag MoS₂ nanoribbon (ZZ-MoS₂ NR) by transition metals (TM) (where TM = Ti, V, Cr, Mn) at the Mo-edge, S-edge, and the middle of the NRs. The results of this study indicate the NR widened irrespective of the doped TM position and type, and the Mo-edge was found as the easiest substitutional position. For ZZ-MoS₂ NR doped by Mn, Cr or V atoms, the preferred magnetic coupling state is the edge atoms of S at the S-edge, exhibiting the same spin polarization with TM (named the FM1 state), attributing the NR with metallic magnetism. For Ti-doped monolayer ZZ-MoS₂ NR, in addition to the FM1 state, other preferred magnetic coupling state was observed in which the edge atoms of S at the S-edge exhibit the opposite spin polarization with that of Ti (named the FM2 state). Thus, the NR doped by Ti atom possesses metallic (FM1 state) or half-metallic (FM2 state) magnetism. The total magnetic moments of the ZZ-MoS₂ NR doped by TM follows a linear relationship as a function of the TM dopants (Mn, Cr, V, and Ti). Under $>4\text{\%}$ applied strain, the NR doped by Ti atom only presents the characteristics of half-metallic magnetism as the initial one in the FM2 state, and its total magnetic moment always remained 0 μB, i.e., it was not affected by the width of the NR. This study provides a rational route of tuning the magnetic properties of ZZ-MoS₂ NRs for their promising applications in nanoelectronics and spin electronic devices.

First-principle investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of PbMn（SO4）2

The magnetic properties of oxide PbMn(SO₄)₂ consisted of MnO₆ octahedra which connected with each other through SO₄ tetrahedra, are well studied in experiments. In this paper, we explored its interesting electronic and magnetic properties with first-principle calculations. Our results show that all Mn ions have high spin states, namely, S = 5/2, and the magnetic couplings between NN and NNN are antiferromagnetic, which agree well with the experimental results. Besides, the surprising results of spin exchange interactions between the NN and NNN are excellently explained with extended Hückel tight-binding calculations.     

Electronic structure and magnetism of R(Fe,Si)12 (R = Y, Nd)

The newly developed full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) and local orbitals (lo) based on standard APW methods are briefly introduced, and the structure and magnetic properties of R(Fe, Si)₁₂ compounds (R = Y, Nd) are calculated using the method. The distribution of Si at different sites is analyzed based on total energy of one crystal unit with structure having been optimized. The characters of magnetic moments, total density of states (TDOS) and partial density of states (PDOS) for different crystal sites Si occupies are obtained and analyzed. The results show that the total magnetic moments of RFe₁₀Si₂ (R = Y, Nd) are larger than those of RFe₁₀ M ₂ (M = Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Mo and W) and the hybridization mechanism is seen as follows. Si(8j) reduce the magnetic moments of Fe at three sites, however, Si(8f) mainly reduce the magnetic moments of Fe(8i) and Fe(8j) atoms. The Curie temperature is markedly enhanced by the introduction of Si atoms according to spin fluctuation of DOS at Fermi level.     

The first principle study of magnetic properties of Mn2WSn,Fe2YSn (Y=Ti,V), Co2YSn (Y=Ti,Zr, Hf,V, Mn) and Ni2YSn (Y=Ti,Zr, Hf,V, Mn) heusler alloys

The spin polarized electronic band structures, density of states (DOS) and magnetic properties of Mn₂WSn, Fe₂YSn (Y=Ti, V), Co₂YSn (Y=Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Mn) and Ni₂YSn (Y=Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Mn) huesler compounds are reported. The calculations are performed by using full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method (FP-LAPW) within density functional theory. The magnetic trend in these compounds is studied using values of magnetic moments, exchange interaction and calculated band gap. The results reveal that Mn₂WSn and Ni₂VSn show 100% spin polarization, Co₂YSn (Y=Ti, Zr, Hf, Mn), Fe₂YSn (Y=Ti, V), and Ni₂MnSn exhibit metallic nature and Ni₂YSn (Y=Ti, Zr, Hf) and Co₂VSn show semi-conducting behavior.     

Covalency Measurements via NMR in Lithium Metal Phosphates

³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) shifts on the order of thousands of parts per million are observed for olivine LiMPO₄ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) samples, a promising class of Li ion rechargeable battery electrode materials. Variable-temperature ³¹P NMR measurements of shift are used to determine that the supertransferred hyperfine interaction is the dominant mechanism giving rise to these unusually large observed ³¹P shifts. Various models for predicting ³¹P and ⁷Li shifts in LiMPO₄ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) were investigated. Alloys of LiFe_1−x Mn _x PO₄, where x varies from 0 to 1, were also investigated by ⁷Li NMR. Covalency constants, calculated from variable-temperature NMR shifts and magnetic susceptibility data, are determined for the P–O–M bonds in LiMPO₄ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) and compared to the covalency constants of the Li–O–M bond. The sign and relative magnitude of the covalency constants are discussed in terms of positive and negative spin densities at the nuclei of interest. The covalency constants for the Li–O–M and P–O–M bonds were measured for Li_1.8Na_0.2FeMn₂(PO₄)₃ and compared to the covalency constants measured in the olivine LiMPO₄ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) samples. The Li_1.8Na_0.2FeMn₂(PO₄)₃ structure has a volume per transition metal atom and Li–O–M bond distances that are similar to those of the olivine LiMPO₄ (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) samples.
