Exchange coupling in Eu compounds
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using ab initio electronic structure calculations employing the LDA+U method we have investigated the exchange coupling in materials containing Eu in Eu formal valency including: (i) insulating ferromagnets (EuO, EuS, EuSe, EuTe), and (ii) elemental metal BCC Eu. The total energies calculated with constrained magnetic structures were mapped on the Heisenberg Hamiltonian in order to investigate the thermodynamic properties. The mechanisms of inter-site exchange, which differ between the studied systems, are discussed. r 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Magnetic Coupling Between Non-Magnetic Ions: Eu in EuN and EuP
We consider the electronic structure of, and magnetic exchange (spin) interactions between, nominally nonmagnetic Eu ions (4f, S=3, L=3, J=0) within the context of the rocksalt structure compounds EuN and EuP. Both compounds are ionic [Eu; N and P ] semimetals similar to isovalent GdN. Treating the spin polarization within the 4f shell, and then averaging consistent with the J=0 configuration, ...

We consider the electronic structure of, and magnetic exchange spin interactions between, nominally nonmagnetic Eu3+ ions 4f6, S=3, L=3, J=0 within the context of the rocksalt structure compounds EuN and EuP. Both compounds are ionic Eu3+; N3− and P3− semimetals similar to isovalent GdN. Treating the spin polarization within the 4f shell, and then averaging consistent with the J=0 configuration...
متن کاملExchange Coupling in Eu Monochalcogenides from First Principles
Using a density functional method with explicit account for strong Coulomb repulsion within the 4 f shell, we calculate effective exchange parameters and the corresponding ordering temperatures of the (ferro)magnetic insulating Eu monochalcogenides (EuX; X = O, S, Se, Te) at ambient and elevated pressure conditions. Our results provide quantitative account of the many-fold increase of the Curie...
متن کاملCharacters of Kinetic and Equilibrium of Adsorption of Eu(III) by an Cation Exchange Resin
The sorption and desorption behaviors of Eu(III) from aqueous solutions with cation exchange resins containing carboxyl groups (D155 resin) were studied in terms of varied Eu(III) concentration, adsorbent dosage, pH, contact time and temperature. Batch shaking sorption experiments were carried out to evaluate the performance of D155 resin in the removal of Eu(III) from aqu...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Economic Implications of the UK Leaving the EU
W hether the United Kingdom (UK) should remain in the European Union (EU) or not has been a fiercely debated issue both before and after the referendum in the UK on June 23, 2016. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate the pros and cons of the UK leaving the EU. It is concluded that if the UK leaves the EU, the resulting economic shock would risk adverse effects on macroecono...
