Magnetic properties in transition-metal-doped gold clusters: M@Au6 (M = Ti, V, Cr).
نویسندگان
چکیده
The electronic structure and magnetic properties in a series of transition-metal-doped Au clusters, MAu6- (M = Ti, V, Cr), are investigated experimentally using photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and density functional calculations. PES features due to the impurity atoms and the host are clearly observed. It is found that all the MAu6- and MAu6 clusters possess a planar structure, in which the transition metal atom is located in the center of an Au6 ring and carries large magnetic moments (2, 3, and 4 muB for MAu6, M = Ti, V, and Cr, respectively).

Dilute Magnetic Semiconductor and Half-Metal Behaviors in 3d Transition-Metal Doped Black and Blue Phosphorenes: A First-Principles Study
We present first-principles density-functional calculations for the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of substitutional 3d transition metal (TM) impurities in two-dimensional black and blue phosphorenes. We find that the magnetic properties of such substitutional impurities can be understood in terms of a simple model based on the Hund's rule. The TM-doped black phosphorenes with ...

متن کاملTailoring the Energy Band Gap of Transition Metal Doped TiO2 Thin Film
Water splitting for hydrogen production under sunlight using TiO2 as photo catalyst provides a better route for solar energy and attracts the attention of many researchers. The photo catalytic activity of TiO2 under sunlight irradiation depends on the band gap energy. The transition metal doped TiO2 shows an edge over TiO2 in optical absorbance and photo catalytic activity. Thin film of Cr dope...
متن کاملEvolution of structure and properties of neutral and negatively charged transition metal-coronene complexes: a comprehensive analysis.
The geometries, electronic and magnetic properties of neutral and negatively charged Mn(coronene)m (M = V and Ti; n, m = 1, 2) complexes were investigated using density functional theory. The results show that one V or Ti atom prefers to occupy the η(6)-site in M(coronene)(0/-) complexes and to be sandwiched between the two coronene molecules in M(coronene)2(0/-) complexes. Two metal atoms alwa...
