In numerous diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) systems, the competition takes place between the short-range antiferromagnetic (AF) superexchange interactions and the long-range Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) coupling mediated by the…
Indirect exchange coupling in magnetic multilayers, also known as the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction, is known to be highly effective in controlling the interlayer alignment of the magnetization. This coupling is typically…
A lattice spin-fermion model for diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) is investigated numerically, improving on previously used mean-field (MF) approximations. Curie temperatures are obtained varying the Mn-spin x and hole n densities, and…
We investigate the influence of degeneracies of the conduction band and the $f$-orbital on the stability of ferromagnetism in the periodic Anderson model. To this end we calculate the temperature dependence of the inverse susceptibility for…
The magnetic properties of dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are calculated from first-principles by mapping the ab initio results on a classical Heisenberg model. It is found that the range of the exchange interaction in (Ga, Mn)N is…
We use the local density approximation (LDA) and LDA+U schemes to study the magnetism of (GaMn)As and (GaMn)N for a number of Mn concentrations and varying number of holes. We show that for both systems and both calculational schemes the…
We study the interatomic exchange interactions and Curie temperatures in half-metallic semi Heusler compounds NiCrZ (Z=P, Se, Te) and NiVAs. The study is performed within the framework of density functional theory. The calculation of…
A detailed study of the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition in the one-band Hubbard model in the presence of binary alloy disorder is presented. The influence of the disorder (with concentration $x$ and $1-x$ of the two alloy…
Employing first-principles electronic structure calculations in conjunction with the frozen-magnon method we study the effective exchange interactions and spin waves in local moment ferromagnets. As prototypes we have chosen three…
Magnetism of the spin-$\frac12$ $\alpha$-KVOPO$_4$ is studied by thermodynamic measurements, $^{31}$P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), neutron diffraction, and density-functional band-structure calculations. Ferromagnetic Curie-Weiss…
We present a semi-analytic theory for the Curie temperature in diluted magnetic semi-conductors that treats disorder effects exactly in the effective Heisenberg Hamiltonian, and spin fluctuations within a local RPA. The exchange couplings…
We propose an explanation of the anomalous growth of plasticity in ferromagnets near the Curie point. We demonstrate that this effect is caused by spin-dependent detachment of dislocations from obstacles under an influence of the internal…
Magnetic two-dimensional materials have potential application in next-generation electronic devices and have stimulated extensive interest in condensed matter physics and material fields. However, how to realize high-temperature…
In this pedagogical paper, the comparative analysis of two common approaches describing the ferromagnetic phase transition in diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) is expounded in terms of Weiss field approximation. Assuming a finite spin…
The temperature dependence of magnetization and specific heat of the ferromagnetic compound DyFe2Zn20 has been measured in detail in various magnetic fields. We have observed anomalous magnetic behavior, i.e., a strong anisotropy at 2 K,…
We study whether Fermi-surface (FS) nesting can give rise to high-temperature superconductivity in iron pnictides. Starting with ab initio construction of an effective four-orbital model, we employ the fluctuation-exchange approximation to…
The metal-graphene contact resistance is one of the major limiting factors toward the technological exploitation of graphene in electronic devices and sensors. A high contact resistance can be detrimental to device performance and spoil the…
In the present work ferromagnetic ordering in the Hubbard model generalized by taking into account the inter-atomic exchange interaction and correlated hopping in partially filled narrow band is considered. Expressions for the magnetization…
