A ternary ferrimagnetic half-metal, constructed through substituting 25% Fe for Mn in zincblende semiconductor MnTe, is predicted in terms of accurate first-principles calculations. It has a large half-metallic (HM) gap of 0.54eV and its…
We investigate the electronic and magnetic properties of (Ga,Mn)N nanocrystals using the density functional theory. We study both wurtzite and zinc-blende structures doped with one or two substitutional Mn impurities. For a single Mn dopant…
We examine the feasibility of a simple description of Mn ions in III-V diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs) in terms of two species (components), motivated by the expectation that the Mn-hole exchange couplings are widely distributed,…

A symmetric spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg diamond chain with the Ising four-spin interaction is exactly solved by means of the generalized decoration-iteration mapping transformation. The ground state, the magnetization process and…
Although InP and GaAs have very similar band-structure their magnetic properties appear to drastically differ. Critical temperatures in (In,Mn)P are much smaller than that of (Ga,Mn)As and scale linearly with Mn concentration. This is in…
