We propose a new mechanism of indirect exchange interaction, which can be responsible for the ferromagnetic ordering in Mn-doped semiconductors (like GaMnAs) at low carrier concentration. The mechanism is based on the interplay of the…

Extreme lattice-mismatched III-V nitrides, such as Bi-incorporated GaN, have been realized experimentally thanks to recent advances in epitaxial growth and characterization techniques. However, theoretical insights into defect-related…

Identification of complex defect has been a long-sought-after physics problem for controlling the defect population and engineering the useful properties in wide bandgap oxide semiconductors. Here we report a systematic study of (GaZn-VZn)-…

The magnetic properties of zig-zag graphene nanoflakes (ZGNF) are investigated within the framework of the dynamical mean-field theory. At half-filling and for realistic values of the local interaction, the ZGNF is in a fully compensated…

A number of diverse bulk properties of the zincblende and wurtzite III-V nitrides AlN, GaN, and InN, are predicted from first principles within density functional theory using the plane-wave ultrasoft pseudopotential method, within both the…

We propose a multilayer device comprising of a thin-film-based ferromagnetic hetero-structure (FMH) deposited on a diamond layer doped with nitrogen vacancy centers (NVC's). We find that when the NVC's are in close proximity (1-2 nm) with…

The weak interlayer coupling in van der Waals (vdW) magnets has confined their application to two dimensional (2D) spintronic devices. Here, we demonstrate that the interlayer coupling in a vdW magnet Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ (FGT) can be largely…
