Magnetism in carbon nanostructures is of high scientific interest, which could lead to novel magnetic materials. The magnetic properties of symmetrical and asymmetrical sized small fullerene dimers have been investigated using spin…
The neutralization of low energy Na$^+$ and Li$^+$ ions scattered from Au nanoclusters formed by deposition onto oxide surfaces decreases as the cluster size increases. An explanation for this behavior is provided here, which is based on…
We study the magnetic fields in galaxy clusters through Faraday rotation measurements crossing systems in different dynamical states. We confirm that magnetic fields are present in those systems and analyze the difference between relaxed…
A self-consistent calculation of the density of states and the spectral density function is performed in a two-dimensional spin-polarized hole system based on a multiple-scattering approximation. Using parameters corresponding to GaMnAs…
We have used density functional perturbation theory to investigate the stiffness of interatomic bonds in small clusters of Si, Sn and Pb. As the number of atoms in a cluster is decreased, there is a marked shortening and stiffening of…
We present numerical simulation studies of the steady-state magnetization dynamics driven by a spin-polarized current in a point contact geometry for the case of a relatively large contact diameter (D = 80 nm) and small external field (H =…
The framework of nuclear energy density functionals is applied to a study of the formation and evolution of cluster states in nuclei. The relativistic functional DD-ME2 is used in triaxial and reflection-asymmetric relativistic…
Geometry, electronic structure, and magnetic properties of methylthiolate-stabilized Au$_{25}$L$_{18}$ and MnAu$_{24}$L$_{18}$ (L = SCH$_3$) clusters adsorbed on noble-metal (111) surfaces have been investigated by using spin-polarized…
Geomagnetism is characterized by intermittent polarity reversals and rapid fluctuations. We have recently proposed a coupled macro-spin model to describe these dynamics based on the idea that the whole dynamo mechanism is described by the…
Flat magnetic nano-elements are an essential component of current and future spintronic devices. By shaping an element it is possible to select and stabilize chosen metastable magnetic states, control its magnetization dynamics. Here, using…
Gold nanostructures have important applications in nanoelectronics, nano-optics as well as in precision metrology due to their intriguing opto-electronic properties. These properties are governed by the bulk band structure but to some…
A detailed simple model is applied to study a metallic cluster. It is assumed that the ions and delocalized electrons are distributed randomly throughout the cluster. The delocalized electrons are assumed to be degenerate. A spherical ball…
Some of the synthesis methods and physical properties of iron-oxide based magnetic nanoparticles such as Fe3-xO4 and CoxFe3-xO4 are reviewed because of their interest in health, environmental applications, and ultra-high-density magnetic…
Equilibrium magnetization curve of a rigid finite-size spherical cluster of single-domain particles is investigated both numerically and analytically. The spatial distribution of particles within the cluster is random. Dipole-dipole…
We have used the Stern-Gerlach deflection technique to study magnetism in chromium clusters of 20-133 atoms. Between 60 K and 100 K, we observe that these clusters have large magnetic moments and respond superparamagnetically to applied…
The focus of our work is on the production of highly magnetic materials out of Cu clusters. We have studied the relative effects of N-capping as well as N mono-doping on the structural stability and electronic properties of the small Cu…
Theoretical studies on the geometry, electronic structure and spin multiplicity of Sc, Ti and V doped Na$_n$ (n = 4, 5, 6) clusters have been carried out within a gradient corrected density functional approach. Two complementary approaches…
We use density functional theory (DFT) to study the thermodynamic stability and migration of copper ions and small clusters embedded in amorphous silicon dioxide. We perform the calculations over an ensemble of statistically independent…
We investigate the shifts of the core-level binding energies in small gold nanoclusters by using {\it ab initio} density functional theory calculations. The shift of the 4$f$ states is calculated for magic number nanoclusters in a wide…
A theory for an electron affinity of ionic clusters is proposed both in a quasiclassical approach and with quantization of a polarization electric field in a nanoparticle. An interaction of an electron with longitudinal optical phonons in…
