It considers three types of atomic disorders in Co2FeSi alloy: the Co-Fe, Co-Si, and Fe-Si disorders. Total energy calculations show that of the three types of disorders, the Fe-Si disorder is more likely to occur. It finds that for the Co Si disorder, additional states appear in the minority band-gap at the EF and the half-metallcity is substantially destroyed, regardless of the disorder level. On the other hand, the Co-Fe and Fe-Si disorders have little effect on the half-metallicity at a low disorder level. When increasing the disorder levels, the half-metallcity is destroyed at about 9 % of the Co-Fe disorder level, while that stays at 25 % of the Fe-Si disorder level.展开更多

The total energies, the lattice parameters, and the bulk modulus and its first pressure derivative were calculated using different exchange correlation approximations. The local density approach(LDA) and Tran–Blaha modified Becke–Johnson(TB-m BJ) approximations were used to calculate the band structure.Nonlinear variations of the lattice parameters, the bulk modulus and the band gap with compositions x and y are found.Furthermore, the optical properties and the dielectric function, refractive index and loss energy were computed. Our results are in good agreement with the validated experimental and theoretical data found in the literature.展开更多
The electronic structures and magnetism of Fe nanowires along the [110] direction on Cu(001) and Ag(001) [Fe(nw)/Cu(001) and Fe(nw)/Ag(001)] are investigated by using the all-electron full-potential linear...The electronic structures and magnetism of Fe nanowires along the [110] direction on Cu(001) and Ag(001) [Fe(nw)/Cu(001) and Fe(nw)/Ag(001)] are investigated by using the all-electron full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method in the generalized gradient approximation. It is found that the magnetic moment of Fe atom for the Fe(nw)/Cu(001) is 2.99#B, which is slightly smaller than that (3.02μB) for the Fe(nw)/Ag(001) but much larger than that (2.22μB) for the bcc iron. The great enhancement of magnetic moment in the Fe nanowires can be explained by the Fe d-band narrowing and enhancement of the spin-splitting due to a reduction in coordination number, From the calculated spin-polarized layer-projected density of states, it is found that the Fe 3d-states are strongly hybridized with the adjacent Cu 3d-states in the Fe(nw)/Cu(001), and there exists a strong hybridization between the Fe sp-and the adjacent Ag 4d-states in the Fe(nw)/Ag(001).展开更多

The result shows that Sr2FeMoO6 is magnetic metallic material,whereas Ba2FeMoO6 and Ca2FeMoO6 are half-metallic materials. Fe has great effect on the magnetic property of double perovskite structure A2FeMoO6 materials. Because of the orbit hybridization and polarization between the metal element and O element,the Mo element has magnetic properties. The static magnetic moment of double perovskite structure A2FeMoO6 materials,the value of the magnetic moment of these A2FeMoO6 for(A=Ca,Sr,Ba) are 3.626 43μB,2.678 64μB,3.706 17μB,respectively. The magnetic moment of Fe element in the crystal cell are,3.626 43μB,2.678 64 μB,3.706 17μB. And the energy of crystal cells are -28 540.561 907Ry,-24 268.037 272Ry,-44 106.187 179Ry. These values are in agreement with the experiment values.展开更多
