We study the electronic structure and magnetism of 25% Mn substituted cubic Zirconia (ZrO2) with several homogeneous and heterogeneous doping profiles using density-functional theory calculations. We find that all doping profiles show…

Following the theoretical predictions of ferromagnetism in Mn- and Co-doped ZnO, several workers reported ferromagnetism in thin films as well as in bulk samples of these materials. While some observe room-temperature ferromagnetism, others…

Using the first-principles density-functional theory plan-wave pseudopotential method, we investigate the structure and magnetism in 25% Mn substitutive and interstitial doped monoclinic, tetragonal and cubic ZrO2 systematically. Our…

The development of ferromagnetism in Mn-doped Bi2Te3 is characterized through measurements on a series of single crystals with different Mn content. Scanning tunneling microscopy analysis shows that the Mn substitutes on the Bi sites,…

In a quest of enriching the area of d0 magnetism in oxide materials, we have undertaken to study Mg-doped TiO2 compounds. The Ti1-xMgxO2 (x=0, 0.02, 0.04 and 0.06) nanoparticles were prepared by solid-state reaction route. The X-ray…

We use density-functional theoretical methods to examine the recent prediction, based on a mean-field solution of the Zener model, that diamond doped by Mn (with spin S=5/2) would be a dilute magnetic semiconductor that remains…

We review pitfalls in recent efforts to make a conventional semiconductor, namely ZnO, ferromagnetic by means of doping with transition metal ions. Since the solubility of those elements is rather low, formation of secondary phases and the…

Mn-doped SrTiO_3.0, when synthesized free of impurities, is a paramagnetic insulator with interesting dielectric properties. Since delocalized charge carriers are known to promote ferromagnetism in a large number of systems via diverse…

The possibility to induce long range ferromagnetic order by doping oxides with transition metal ions has become a very exciting challenge in the last decade. Theoretically, it has been claimed that Mn doped ZrO$_2$ could be a very promising…

Recently, d0 ferromagnetic materials have been projected as one of the promising novel materials for spintronics applications. In this work, we have studied Li-doped ZnO compounds, i.e. Zn1-xLixO (x=0, 0.02, 0.04, and 0.06) samples,…
