New materials are currently sought for use in spintronics applications. Ferromagnetic materials with half metallic properties are valuable in this respect. Here we present the electronic structure and magnetic properties of binary compounds…

The relative energetic stability of the structural phases of common antiferromagnetic transition-metal oxides (MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO) within the semilocal and hybrid density functionals are fraught with difficulties. In particular, MnO is…

We present a spin density functional theory (DFT) study for semiconducting ScN and Mn-substituted ScN. Their structural and magnetic properties have been investigated using the all electrons augmented spherical wave method (ASW) with a…

Using the hybrid exchange-correlation functional within the density-functional theory, we have systematically investigated the structural and electronic properties of MO (M = Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Cd) in binary rocksalt (B1), zincblende…

The lithium manganese oxide spinel Li$_x$Mn$_2$O$_4$, with $0\leq x\leq 2$, is an important example for cathode materials in lithium ion batteries. However, an accurate description of Li$_x$Mn$_2$O$_4$ by first-principles methods like…

We present an analysis of the polymorphic energy ordering and properties of the rock salt and zincblende structures of manganese oxide using fixed node diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC). Manganese oxide is a correlated, antiferromagnetic material…

We report on Monte Carlo studies of the kinetic exchange model for (III,Mn)V ferromagnetic semiconductors in which S=5/2 local moments, representing Mn^{2+} ions, are exchange coupled to band electrons. We treat the Mn^{2+}$ spin…

Based on first-principles electron structure calculations and employing the frozen-magnon approximation we study the exchange interactions in a series of transition-metal binary alloys crystallizing in the zinc-blende structure and…

Manganese nitrides should be with amazing properties and promised application, because manganese atom is particular for its magnetism, valence states, high electron density, etc., and N atoms in compounds form different substructures. It is…

The interlayer exchange coupling mediated by the valence band electrons in $\textrm{(MnTe)}_{\textrm{m}} \textrm{(ZnTe)}_{\textrm{n}}$ superlattices has been examined theoretically. The calculations have been performed within the framework…

Heterostructures of mixed-valence manganites are still under intense scrutiny, due to the occurrence of exotic quantum phenomena linked to electronic correlation and interfacial composition. For instance, if two anti-ferromagnetic…

Density functional theory simulations with conventional (PBE) and hybrid (HSE06) functionals were performed to investigate the structural and electronic properties of MXene monolayers, \ce{Ti_{n+1}C_n} and \ce{Ti_{n+1}N_n} ($n$ = 1--9) with…

Manganese sulfide (MnS) is a p-type magnetic semiconductor whose physicochemical properties are sensitive to nanocrystal (NC) morphology, yet the thermodynamic driving forces governing morphology across MnS polymorphs remain poorly…

Manganese metallocenes larger than the experimentally produced sandwiched MnBz$_2$ compound are studied using several density functional theory methods. First, we show that the lowest energy structures have Mn clusters surrounded by benzene…

Half-metallicity in materials has been a subject of extensive research due to its potential for applications in spintronics. Ferromagnetic manganites have been seen as a good candidate, and aside from a small minority-spin pocket observed…
