Jahn-Teller distortion induced magnetic phase transition in cubic BaFeO

Gul Rahman, Juliana M. Morbec, Rubén Ferradás +1

Using density functional theory (DFT) with local density approximation (LDA) and generalized gradient approximation (GGA) correlation functionals, the electronic and magnetic struc…

Non-equilibrium transport response from equilibrium transport theory

V. M. García-Suárez, J. Ferrer

We propose a simple scheme that describes accurately essential non-equilibrium effects in nanoscale electronics devices using equilibrium transport theory. The scheme, which is bas…

Surface-induced magnetism in C-doped SnO

Gul Rahman, Víctor M. García-Suárez

The magnetism of C-doped SnO (001) surfaces is studied using first-principles calculations. It is found that carbon does not induce magnetism in bulk SnO when located a…
