Structure stability and magnetism in graphene impurity complexes with embedded V and Nb atoms

Jyoti Thakur, Manish K. Kashyap, Hardev S. Saini +1

First-principles density functional theory (DFT) study of embedding V and Nb atom in monovacant and divacant graphene is reported. Complete/almost complete spin polarization is ver…

Better Band Gaps with Asymptotically Corrected Local Exchange Potentials

Prashant Singh, Manoj K. Harbola, M. Hemanadhan +2

We formulate a spin-polarized van Leeuwen and Baerends (vLB) correction to the local density approximation (LDA) exchange potential [Phys. Rev. A 49, 2421 (1994)] that enforces the…

Magnetically induced phonon splitting in ACrO spinels from first principles

Aleksander L. Wysocki, Turan Birol

We study the magnetically-induced phonon splitting in cubic ACrO (A=Mg, Zn, Cd, Hg) spinels from first principles, and demonstrate that the sign of the splitting, which is…

Structural and ferromagnetic properties of an orthorhombic phase of MnBi stabilized with Rh additions

Valentin Taufour, Srinivasa Thimmaiah, Stephen March +6

The article addresses the possibility of alloy elements in MnBi which may modify the thermodynamic stability of the NiAs-type structure without significantly degrading the magnetic…

Magneto-structural transformations via a solid-state nudged elastic band method: Application to iron under pressure

N. A. Zarkevich, D. D. Johnson

We extend the solid-state nudged elastic band method to handle a non-conserved order parameter - in particular, magnetization, that couples to volume and leads to many observed eff…

Band-filling effect on magnetic anisotropy using a Green's function method

Liqin Ke, Mark van Schilfgaarde

We use an analytical model to describe the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy (MAE) in solids as a function of band filling. The MAE is evaluated in second-order perturbation the…
