Our density functional theory calculations for Fe_{13-n}M_{n} for M = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Co, Ni, and Cu up to n = 4 show that the icosahedral symmetry of Fe13, albeit minor changes in bond lengths, is robust despite doping and is retained…
With a goal to produce giant magnetic moment in Mn$_{13}$ cluster which will be useful for practical applications, we have considered the structure and magnetic properties of pure Mn$_{13}$ cluster and substitutionally doped it with X = Ti,…
Geometry, electronic structure, and magnetic properties of methylthiolate-stabilized Au$_{25}$L$_{18}$ and MnAu$_{24}$L$_{18}$ (L = SCH$_3$) clusters adsorbed on noble-metal (111) surfaces have been investigated by using spin-polarized…
Mn doping of group-IV semiconductors (Si/Ge) is achieved by embedding a thin Mn-film as a {\delta}-doped layer in group-IV matrix. The Mn-layer consists of a dense layer of monoatomic Mn-wires, which are oriented perpendicular to the…
We report an \emph{ab inito} investigation on the ground-state atomic configuration, electronic structures, magnetic and spin-dependent transport properties of Mn-doped Au$_{25}$ nanoclusters protected by thiolate. It is found that the most…
The focus of our work is on the production of highly magnetic materials out of Cu clusters. We have studied the relative effects of N-capping as well as N mono-doping on the structural stability and electronic properties of the small Cu…
While isovalent doping of GaAs (e.g. by In) leads to a repulsion between the solute atoms, two Cr, Mn, or Fe atoms in GaAs are found to have lower energy than the well-separated pair, and hence attract each other. The strong bonding…
The magnetic coupling between doped Mn atoms in clusters as well as crystals of GaN has been studied from first principles using molecular orbital theory for clusters and linearized muffin tin orbitals-tight binding formulation (LMTO-TB)…
Neutron diffraction and magnetic susceptibility studies of orthorhombic single crystal {\Ksub} confirm the three dimensional (3D) C-type antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering of the Mn$^{2+}$ moments at $T_{\rm N}=305 \pm 3$ K which is slightly…
Using Hubbard U corrected density functional theory calculations, lattice Monte-Carlo, and spin-Monte-Carlo simulations, we investigate the impact of dopant clustering on the magnetic properties of WSe2~doped with period four transition…
We report two solid solutions based on magnetic ion doping of the double perovskite oxide Sr2GaSbO6: Sr2Ga1-xCrxSbO6 (0.1 < x < 0.4) and Sr2Ga1-xFexSbO6 (0.1 < x < 0.4). All compositions crystallize in the same space group (I4/m) as their…
The percentage of substitutional doping of magnetic atoms (Mn) in group-IV-based dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) can be increased by co-doping with another conventional electronic dopant (e-dopant) [Zhu et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100,…
Phase diagram of electron and hole-doped SrFe2As2 single crystals is investigated using Co and Mn substitution at the Fe-sites. We found that the spin-density-wave state is suppressed by both dopants, but the superconducting phase appears…
We report the Ni-doping effect on magnetism and superconductivity (SC) in an Eu-containing 112-type system Eu(Fe$_{1-x}$Ni$_{x})$As$_{2}$ ($0\leq x\leq 0.15$) by the measurements of resistivity, magnetization, and specific heat. The undoped…
Using calculations from first principles, we herein consider the bond made between thiolat e with a range of different Au clusters, with a particular focus on the spin moments inv olved in each case. For odd number of gold atoms, the…
The significance of the spin-orbit interaction is very well known in compounds containing heavier elements such as the rare-earth Eu ion. Here, through density functional calculations, we investigated the effect of the spin-orbit…
Otherwise antiferromagnetic chromium is shown to couple ferromagnetically when doped into GaN irrespective of whether the host is a crystal or a cluster. The results on the doped clusters and crystals are obtained from density functional…
A first-principles DFT-GGA+U study of the doping of GaN with Cr, Mn, or Fe confirms a strong tendency for the formation of embedded clusters occupying Ga sites of the wurtzite and zinc blende phases of GaN. Within the employed computation…
Zn1-xRxO (R = Li, Mg, Cr, Mn, Fe and Cd) were obtained by using co-precipitation synthesis technique with constant weight percent of 3% from R ions. The phase composition, crystal structure, morphology, Density Functional Theory (DFT), and,…
Magnetic interaction with the gapless surface states in topological insulator (TI) has been predicted to give rise to a few exotic quantum phenomena. However, the effective magnetic doping of TI is still challenging in experiment. Using…
