Noncollinear magnetic states in clusters are studied by using the single-band Hubbard Hamiltonian. The unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) approximation is considered without imposing any symmetry constraints neither to the size or orientation…
Organometallic clusters based on transition metal atoms are interesting because possible applications in spintronics and quantum information. In addition to the enhanced magnetism at the nanoscale, the organic ligands may provide a natural…
In this paper we propose a tight-binding molecular dynamics with parameters fitted to first-principles calculations on the smaller clusters and with an environment correction, to be a powerful technique for studying large transition/noble…
The evolution of the magnetic moment in iron clusters containing 20 to 400 atoms is investigated using first-principles numerical calculations based on density-functional theory and real-space pseudopotentials. Three families of clusters…
We have used the Stern-Gerlach deflection technique to study magnetism in chromium clusters of 20-133 atoms. Between 60 K and 100 K, we observe that these clusters have large magnetic moments and respond superparamagnetically to applied…
The size dependent electronic structure and separate spin and orbital magnetic moments of free Co$_n^+$ ($n = 4\;\textrm{-}\;9$) cluster ions have been investigated by x-ray absorption and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy in a…
We have investigated structure and properties of small metal clusters using all-electron ab initio theoretical methods based on the Hartree-Fock approximation and density functional theory, perturbation theory and compared results of our…
The objective of this paper is to help shedding some light on the nature and the properties of the cold structures formed via thermal instability in the magnetized atomic interstellar medium. To this end, we searched for clumps formed in…
The cobalt and iron clusters CoN, FeN (20 < N < 150) measured in a cryogenic molecular beam are found to be bistable with magnetic moments per atom both {\mu}N/N 2{\mu}B in the ground states and {\mu}N */N {\mu}B in the metastable excited…
Magnetic properties of metals are investigated through electronic structure calculations based on the recently-proposed magnetic-field-containing relativistic tight-binding approximation (MFRTB) method [Phys. Rev. B \textbf{91}, 075122…
Electronic structures of 13-atom Rh clusters with three possible high-symmetry geometries are studied using the discrete-variational local-spin-density-functional method. The ground state is found to be the icosahedral structure, and a…
Global minimum structures of neutral (Fe2O3)n clusters with n = 1-5 were determined employing the genetic algorithm in combination with ab initio parameterized interatomic potentials and subsequent refinement at the density functional…
In this present work, we report a structural and magnetic study of mixed Co58Pt42 clusters. MgO, Nb and Si matrix can be used to embed clusters, avoiding any magnetic interactions between particles. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM)…
In this work, results of {\it ab-initio} band structure calculations for $A_2BC$ Heusler compounds that have $A$ and $B$ sites occupied by transition metals and $C$ by a main group element are presented. This class of materials includes…
We report an unusual evolution of structure and magnetism in stoichiometric MnO clusters based on an extensive and unbiased search through the potential energy surface within density functional theory. The smaller clusters, containing up to…
We present a new approach to clustering, based on the physical properties of an inhomogeneous ferromagnet. No assumption is made regarding the underlying distribution of the data. We assign a Potts spin to each data point and introduce an…
