Using density-functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation, we show that Si-based heterostructures with 1/4 layer $\delta$-doping of {\em interstitial} Mn (Mn$_{\mathrm int}$) are half-metallic. For Mn$_{\mathrm int}$…
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…
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…
First principles calculations based on density functional theory are performed to investigate the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of wurtzite ZnO/NiO (0001) interface. By using DFT+U method we discover that the half-metallic…
First-principles calculations and a tight-binding analysis predict that the iron-pnictide BaCrFeAs2 is a promising candidate for half-metallic material with fully-compensated magnetization. The transition-metal ions Cr and Fe prefer the…
We report evidence that the experimentally observed small deformation of antiferromagnetic NiO modifies the symmetry of the crystal in such a way that the antiferromagnetic state becomes an eigenstate of the electronic Hamiltonian. This…
We present mean-field and quantum Monte Carlo results that suggest the existence of an itinerant antiferromagnetic ground state in the half-filled $U-t-t'$ model in two dimensions. In particular, working at $t'/t=-0.2$ we found that…
Half-metals, featuring ideal 100\% spin polarization, are widely regarded as key materials for spintronic and quantum technologies; however, the half-metallic state is intrinsically fragile, as it relies on a delicate balance of exchange…
We investigate the effect of Mn substitution in Fe$_2$Ti$_{1-x}$Mn$_x$Sn on electronic structure and magnetic and electrical transport properties. The spin-polarized density of states calculations using density-functional theory (DFT)…
In the first of two articles, we present here a novel mesoscopic micromagnetic approach for simulating materials composed of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases. Starting with the atomistic modeling of quasi one-dimensional systems,…
We propose and investigate the properties of a digital ferromagnetic heterostructure (DFH) consisting of a $\delta$-doped layer of Mn in Si, using \textit{ab initio} electronic-structure methods. We find that (i) ferromagnetic order of the…
Taking into account Goodenough's superexchange rules, including both full structural relaxation and spin-orbit coupling, and checking strong correlation effects, we look for compensated half metals within the class of oxide double…
Semiconducting oxides possess a variety of intriguing electronic, optical, and magnetic properties, and native defects play a crucial role in these systems. In this study, we study the influence of native defects on these properties of…
Multilayer VO$_2$/TiO$_2$ nanostructures ($d^1$ - $d^0$ interfaces with no polar discontinuity) are studied with first principles density functional methods including structural relaxation. Quantum confinement of the {\it half metallic}…
A band structure description of the observed large band gaps and moments in both the antiferromagnetic (AFM) and paramagnetic (PM) phases of the classic NaCl-structure Mott insulators MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO is provided by ordinary,…
This paper reviews the present understanding of the origin of ferromagnetic response of diluted magnetic semiconductors and diluted magnetic oxides as well as in some nominally magnetically undoped materials. It is argued that these systems…
We investigate the electronic structure and magnetism of half-Heusler compounds XYZ (X, Y=V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni; Z=Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn, P, As, and Sb) using the ab initio density functional theory calculations. Nine half-metals with…
Half-metallic fully compensated ferrimagnets (HM-FCFMs), a special class of half-metals exhibiting zero magnetization at absolute zero, are promising candidates for next-generation spintronics applications. For over 25 years, theoretical…
Using theoretical arguments, we show that, in order to exploit half-metallic ferromagnets in tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) junctions, it is crucial to eliminate interface states at the Fermi level within the half-metallic gap; contrary…
We study three-dimensional nodal line semimetals (NLSMs) with magnetic ordering and strong spin-orbit interaction. Two distinct classes of magnetic NLSMs are proposed. The first class is band-inversion NLSM where the accidental line node is…
