摘要
基于密度泛函理论(DFT)采用第一性原理的全势能线性缀加平面波(FLAPW)的能带计算方法研究了强磁性Heusler合金Co2TiSn和Co2ZrSn的电子能带结构,在计算中考虑了自旋-轨道藕合(SOC)的修正.计算结果表明两种合金在费米面附近的能带结构是一个d-d电子杂化作用形成的能带.分析计算结果发现Co原子对磁矩有主要的贡献,两种Heusler合金的磁矩是由于Co原子3d eg的自旋劈裂形成的,3deg的自旋向下分量是合金的电子态密度(DOS)的主要来源.由能带计算得到Co2TiSn和Co2ZrSn的自旋磁矩分别为1.97μB和1.96μB,其中Co原子在上述两种合金中的自旋磁矩分别是1.01μB和1.02μB,轨道磁矩分别为0.041μB和0.051μB.
First-principles density functional calculations are reported for Heusler alloys Co2TiSn and Co2ZrSn by the full-potential linearized augmented planewave method and spin-orbit coupling is included. The calculated results exhibit that Co atoms mainly carry the magnetic moment in two alloys and the spin splits of Co-3deg electrons produce the magnetic moments of alloys. It is found that the density of states of two alloys mainly derives from the contribution of Co-3deg in the minority-spin state. According to the results of calculation, spin magnetic moment of Co2YSn(Y= Ti,Zr)is 1.97 VB and 1.96 VB, respectively. Spin and orbital magnetic moments of Co are 1.01 VB and 0. 041 VB in Co2TiSn, respectively. In Co2ZrSn,they are 1.02 VB and 0. 051 VB.
