Tin monoxide (SnO) is a p-type oxide semiconductor whose electronic properties can be widely modified via atomic-scale engineering. Using density functional theory, we investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of transition-metal…
We study the magnetic and electronic properties of defects in SnO$_{2}$ using pseudopotential and all electron methods. Our calculations show that bulk SnO$_{2}$ is non-magnetic, but it shows magnetism with a magnetic moment around 4.00…
We have investigated the magnetic properties of non-doped ZnO nanostructures by using {\it ab initio} total energy calculations. Contrary to many proposals that ferromagnetism in non-doped semiconductors should be induced by intrinsic point…
The magnetism of C-doped SnO$_{2}$ (001) surfaces is studied using first-principles calculations. It is found that carbon does not induce magnetism in bulk SnO$_{2}$ when located at the oxygen site, but shows a large magnetic moment at the…
It has been a long-standing goal to create magnetism in a nonmagnetic material by manipulating its structure at the nanometer scale. This idea may be realized in graphitic carbon: evidence suggests magnetic states at the edges of graphene…
We performed first-principles calculations to investigate the possible magnetism induced by the different concentrations of non-magnetic impurities and vacancies in BN sheet. The atoms of Be, B, C, N, O, Al and Si are used to replace either…
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 present ab initio calculations for single-atom vacancies in graphene. In agreement with earlier work, we find that vacancies are responsible for the magnetism recently observed experimentally, creating a center with net spin. For small…
We report production of nanostructured carbon foam by a high-repetition-rate, high-power laser ablation of glassy carbon in Ar atmosphere. A combination of characterization techniques revealed that the system contains both sp2 and sp3…
TThe magnetism and electronic structure of Li-doped SnO$_{2}$ are investigated using first-principles LDA/LDA$+U$ calculations. We find that Li induces magnetism in SnO$_{2}$ when doped at the Sn site but becomes non-magnetic when doped at…
The discovery of superconductivity in Nd$_{0.8}$Sr$_{0.2}$NiO$_2$ [1] introduced a new family of layered nickelate superconductors that has now been extended to include a range of Sr-doping [2, 3], Pr or La in place of Nd [4-6], and the…
