We have studied the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic defects in the magnetic and electrical transport properties of Co-doped ZnO thin films. X ray absorption measurements show that Co substitute Zn in the ZnO structure and it is in the…
The interplay between covalency and magnetism is non-trivial and can be harnessed for designing new functional magnetic materials. Based on a survey using density functional calculations, we show that $TM\unicode{x2013}O$ bond covalency can…
Spin and orbital magnetic moments of cationic iron, cobalt, and nickel clusters have been determined from x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. In the size regime of $n = 10 - 15$ atoms, these clusters show strong ferromagnetism…
The magnetic properties of iron-based superconductors $A$Fe$_2$As$_2$ ($A=$K, Cs, and Rb), which are characterized by the V-shaped dependence of the critical temperature ($T_{\rm c}$) on pressure ($P$) were studied by means of the muon spin…
The zero temperature Mott transition region in antiferromagnetic, spin S=5/2 MnO is probed using the correlated band theory LSDA+U method. The first transition encountered is an insulator-insulator volume collapse within the rocksalt…
In this work we have employed density-functional theory with hybrid functionals to investigate the atomic and electronic structure of bare and hydrogenated Mn doped ZnO nanowires with small diameter. We determine changes in magnetic and…
We report electronic and magnetic structure of arsenic-doped manganese clusters from density-functional theory using generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation energy. We find that arsenic stabilizes manganese clusters,…
By combining first-principles electronic-structure calculations with the model Hamiltonian approach, we systematically study the magnetic properties of sodium superoxide (NaO2), originating from interacting superoxide molecules. We show…
We report the observation of magnon spin currents generated by the Spin Seebeck effect (SSE) in a bulk single crystal of the easy-plane antiferromagnet NiO. A magnetic field induces a non-degeneracy and thereby an imbalance in the…
SmN is ferromagnetic below 27 K, and its net magnetic moment of 0.03 Bohr magnetons per formula unit is one of the smallest magnetisations found in any ferromagnetic material. The near-zero moment is a result of the nearly equal and…
Recent neutron scattering and nuclear magnetic resonance experiments have revealed that the low temperature phase of doped V_{2-y}O_3 is an itinerant antiferromagnet with a helical spin structure. We use a band structure calculation as the…
We report muon spin rotation ($\mu$SR) and magnetization measurements on superconducting Sr$_{2}$VO$_{3}$FeAs under pressure. At ambient pressure, Sr$_{2}$VO$_{3}$FeAs undergoes an antiferromagnetic transition of the V moments at $T_{N}$…
The effect of different surface defects on the atomic and electronic structures of cubic $\beta$-SiC(110) surface are studied by means of a first principles calculation based on Density Functional Theory using the SIESTA code. In the…
The multifunctional materials with prominent properties such as electrical, ferroelectric, magnetic, optical and magneto-optical are of keen interest to several practical implications. In the roadmap of designing such materials, in the…
We report muon spin rotation (muSR) and infrared (IR) spectroscopy experiments on underdoped BaFe1.89Co0.11As2 which show that bulk magnetism and superconductivity (SC) coexist and compete on the nanometer length scale. Our combined data…
The structural and magnetic anomaly of the layered compound SrFeO$_{2}$ were examined by first principles density functional calculations and Monte Carlo simulations. The down-spin Fe 3$d$ electron occupies the $d_{z^2}$ level rather than…
We used a solid-state reaction method to prepare Sn$_{1-x}$Ni$_x$O$_2$ with $x$ = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 polycrystalline compounds. A rutile phase with tetragonal crystal structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. At room temperature, the…
An intriguing idea of spin-orbit Mott insulator has been proposed to explain magnetic insulating behavior in various iridates. This scenario relies on the strength of the spin-orbit coupling being comparable to electronic correlations, and…
Self-interaction corrected local spin density approximation calculations were performed for La$_{(1-x)}$Sr$_x$MnO$_3$ (LSMO) ($0.0<x<0.5$). The influence and inter-relationship of Sr doping, magnetic structure, O displacements and phase…
We report room temperature ferromagnetism in boron-doped ZnO both experimentally and theoretically. The single phase Zn1-xBxO films deposited under high oxygen pressure by pulsed-laser deposition show ferromagnetic behavior at room…
