N-doped SrO seems to be one of the model systems for d^0 magnetism, in which magnetism (or ideally, ferromagnetism) was ascribed to the localized N 2p spins mediated by delocalized O 2p holes. Here we offer a different view, using density…
Next-generation spintronic devices will benefit from low-dimensionality, ferromagnetism, and half-metallicity, possibly controlled by electric fields. We find these technologically-appealing features to be combined with an exotic…
