Femtosecond Demagnetization and Hot Hole Relaxation in Ferromagnetic GaMnAs

J. Wang, L. Cywinski, C. Sun +3

We have studied ultrafast photoinduced demagnetization in GaMnAs via two-color time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr spectroscopy. Below-bandgap midinfrared pump pulses strongly excit…

Electrically-driven phase transition in magnetite nanostructures

Sungbae Lee, Alexandra Fursina, John T. Mayo +5

Magnetite (FeO), an archetypal transition metal oxide, has been used for thousands of years, from lodestones in primitive compasses[1] to a candidate material for magne…

Edge Effects in Finite Elongated Graphene Nanoribbons

Oded Hod, Juan E. Peralta, Gustavo E. Scuseria

We analyze the relevance of finite-size effects to the electronic structure of long graphene nanoribbons using a divide and conquer density functional approach. We find that for hy…

Half-metallic graphene nanodots

Oded Hod, Veronica Barone, Gustavo E. Scuseria

A comprehensive first-principles theoretical study of the electronic properties and half-metallic nature of finite rectangular graphene nanoribbons is presented. We identify the bi…

Disorder, spin-orbit, and interaction effects in dilute

Gregory A. Fiete, Gergely Zarand, Kedar Damle +1

We derive an effective Hamiltonian for in the dilute limit, where can be described in terms of spin

On the Kohn-Sham equations with periodic background potentials

E. Prodan, P. Nordlander

We study the question of existence and uniqueness for the finite temperature Kohn-Sham equations. For finite volumes, a unique soluion is shown to exists if the effective potential…
