Magnetic susceptibility of insulators from first principles.

چکیده
We present an ab initio approach for the computation of the magnetic susceptibility χ of insulators. The approach is applied to compute χ in diamond and in solid neon using density functional theory in the local density approximation, obtaining good agreement with experimental data. In solid neon, we predict an observable dependence of χ upon pressure. 75.20.-g, 71.15.-m, 71.15.Mb Typeset using REVTEX

We have investigated the magnetic properties of three-dimensional topological insulators, doped with magnetic atoms. The spin-orbit locking of surface electrons results in interesting magnetic behaviors, absent in conventional insulators without spin-orbit coupling. In particular, the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition temperature has a strong dependence on different system parameters. Here,...
متن کاملTheoretical study of magnetic susceptibility and optical activity of small molecules containing one chiral center
In the first part of this work, correlation between optical activity and elements of magnetic susceptibility tensor (MST) for five classes of model small molecules containing a single chiral center has been studied using quantum computational techniques at DFT-B3LYP level of theory with 6-311G basis set. Several molecular properties are used to reduce the MST elements prior to the examination o...
متن کاملElectrically Tunable Magnetism in Magnetic Topological Insulators.
The external controllability of the magnetic properties in topological insulators would be important both for fundamental and practical interests. Here we predict the electric-field control of ferromagnetism in a thin film of insulating magnetic topological insulators. The decrease of band inversion by the application of electric fields results in a reduction of magnetic susceptibility, and hen...

In this study, Sendust (Fe85Si9.6Al5.4) nanostructure alloy was prepared bymechanical alloying and was characterized by X-ray diffraction. In addition, the alloy’smorphology and its distribution particle size were investigated by scanning electronmicroscopy method. The alloyed powders were insulated with 4wt% of three differentinsulating materials including polyvinyl alc...
متن کاملFirst-principles approach to lattice-mediated magnetoelectric effects.
We present a first-principles scheme for the computation of the linear magnetoelectric response of magnetic insulators. We focus on the lattice-mediated part of the response, which we argue can be expected to be dominant in materials displaying strong magnetoelectric couplings. We apply our method to Cr2O3 and show that its low-temperature response has a significant lattice character.
