The impact of shear deformation in $(1\,0\,1)[1\,0\,\bar{1}]$ system of non-modulated (NM) martensite in Ni$_2$MnGa ferromagnetic shape memory alloy is investigated by means of ab initio atomistic simulations. The shear system is associated…
We investigate the effects of Fe and Co substitutions on the phase stability of the martensitic phase, mechanical, electronic and magnetic properties of magnetic shape memory system Mn$_{2}$NiGa by first-principles Density functional…
Using first-principles density functional theory method, we have investigated the distribution and magnetism of doped Mn atoms in the vicinity of the 3 (112) grain boundary in Ge. We find that at low concentration, the substitutional sites…
Structural modulation is a key ingredient behind the extraordinary (magneto)elastic response of Ni-Mn-Ga martensite, yet its link to fine twinned microstructure and twin-boundary supermobility remains unresolved. Here we analyse martensitic…
Twin domains are naturally present in the topological insulator \BiSe{} and affect strongly its properties. While studies of its behavior for ideal \BiSe{} structure exist, little is known about their possible interaction with other…
Resistivity, Hall effect, magnetoresistance and DC magnetization were measured in Mn and Zn doped Ba$_{0.5}$K$_{0.5}$Fe$_{2}$As$_{2}$ samples. It is found that the Mn-doping can depress the superconducting transition temperature drastically…
Considering the disorder caused in manganites by the substitution of Mn by Fe or Ga, we accomplish a systematic study of doped manganites begun in previous papers. To this end, a disordered model is formulated and solved using the…
The percentage of substitutional doping of magnetic atoms (Mn) in group-IV-based dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) can be increased by co-doping with another conventional electronic dopant (e-dopant) [Zhu et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100,…
Martensitic transformations are strain driven displacive transitions governing the mechanical and physical properties in intermetallic materials. This is the case in Ni$_2$MnGa, where the martensite transition is at the heart of the…
A highly intriguing aspect in iron-pnictide superconductors is the composition-dependent electronic structure, in particular the question if and how charge carriers are introduced to the system upon substitution of Ba by alkali metals or of…
The magnetism in 12.5% and 25% Mn delta-doped cubic GaN has been investigated using the density-functional theory calculations. The results show that the single-layer delta-doping and half-delta-doping structures show robust ground state…
In this investigation, Gd and Mn co-doped Bi$_{0.85}$Gd$_{0.15}$Fe$_{1-x}$Mn$_x$O$_3$ (x=0.0-0.15) nanoparticles have been prepared to report the influence of co-substitution on their structural, optical, magnetic and electrical properties.…
We present a systematic investigation of the effect of H, B, C, and N interstitials on the electronic, lattice and magnetic properties of La(Fe,Si)$_{13}$ using density functional theory. The parent LaSiFe$_{12}$ alloy has a shallow,…
While most calculations on the properties of the ferromagnetic semiconductor GaAs:Mn have focussed on isolated Mn substituting the Ga site (Mn$_{Ga}$), we investigate here whether alternate lattice sites are favored and what the magnetic…
Spin-manipulated doping with magnetic (Ni) and non-magnetic (Mg) dopants constitutes the experimental attempts to obtain a singlet ground state system from the linear chain Heisenberg antiferromagnetic Cu-based $d^{9}$ spin-1/2 trimer…
The structure, magnetic and martensitic properties of Fe doped Ni-Mn-In magnetic shape memory alloys have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry, magnetization, resistivity, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and EXAFS. While…
High mobility of twin boundaries in modulated martensites of Ni-Mn-Ga-based ferromagnetic shape memory alloys holds a promise for unique magnetomechanical applications. This feature has not been fully understood so far, and in particular it…
