We present a computational study of the adhesive and structural properties of the Al/Al2O3 interfaces as building blocks of the Metal-Insulator-Metal (MIM) tunnel devices, where electron transport is accomplished via tunnelling mechanism…
A computational study of the epitaxial Co2MnSi(001)/MgO(001) interface relevant to tunneling magnetoresistive (TMR) devices is presented. Employing ab initio atomistic thermodynamics, we show that the Co- or MnSi-planes of bulk-terminated…
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…
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…
Electronic structure calculation were used to predict a new material for spintronic applications. Co2Mn0.5Fe0.5Si is one example which is stable against on-site correlation and disorder effects due to the position of the Fermi energy in the…
We present results based on local spin density calculations of a computational search for half-metallic (HM) antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials within the class of double perovskite structure oxides LaM'M''O3 that incorporate open shell 3d…
The local atomic disorder and the electronic structure in the environment of manganese atoms in LaMnO_3 has been studied by x-ray absorption spectroscopy, over a temperature range (300K to 870K) covering the orbital ordering transition…
Bare and surface-passivated Fe2N, Co2N, and Ni2N MXene were investigated by using density functional theory. Fe2N(OH)2, Fe2NO2, Co2NO2, Ni2NF2, Ni2N(OH)2, and Ni2NO2 are intrinsic half-metals, while other structures have antiferromagnetic…
Functionalities in crystalline materials are determined by 3-dimensional collective interactions of atoms. The confinement of dimensionality in condensed matter provides an exotic research direction to understand the interaction of atoms,…
AlN and ZnO, two wide band-gap semiconductors extensively used in the display industry, crystallise in the wurtzite structure, which can favour the formation of epitaxial interfaces to close-packed common ferromagnets. Here we explore these…
Layered transition-metal compounds have received great attention owing to their novel physical properties. Here, we present the structural, electronic, thermal, and magnetic properties of BaMn2Sb2 and Ba2Mn3Sb2O2 single crystals, both with…
Finite magnesium oxide nanotubes are investigated. Stacks of four parallel squares, hexagons, octagons, and decagons are constructed and studied by the pseudopotential density functional theory within the local-density approximation.…
The edge of a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) in a magnetic field consists of one-dimensional (1D) edge-channels that arise from the confining electric field at the edge of the specimen$^{1-3}$. The crossed electric and magnetic…
The two-dimensional atomically thin insulator hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) constitutes a new paradigm in tunnel based devices. A large band gap along with its atomically flat nature without dangling bonds or interface trap states makes it…
The influence of insertion of an ultra-thin NiO layer between the MgO barrier and ferromagnetic electrode in magnetic tunnel junctions has been investigated by measuring the tunneling magnetoresistance and the X-ray magnetic circular…
We present a study of the electronic structure and magnetism of Co$_2$MnAl, CoMnVAl and their heterostructure. We employ a combination of density-functional theory and dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT). We find that Co$_2$MnAl is a…
In order to study the magnetic and crystal structures in the Nd{1-x}Sr{x}MnO{3} system, we have peformed neutron diffraction measurements on melt-grown polycrystalline samples with 0.49 < x < 0.75. As a function of hole concentration x, the…
