Importance of correlation effects on magnetic anisotropy in Fe and Ni.

چکیده
We calculate magnetic anisotropy energy of Fe and Ni by taking into account the effects of strong electronic correlations, spin-orbit coupling, and noncollinearity of intra-atomic magnetization. The LDA+U method is used and its equivalence to dynamical mean-field theory in the static limit is emphasized. Both experimental magnitude of magnetic anisotropy energy and direction of magnetization are predicted correctly near U = 1.9 eV, J = 1.2 eV for Ni and U = 1.2 eV, J = 0.8 eV for Fe. Correlations modify the one-electron spectra which are now in better agreement with experiments.

Soft Magnetic Properties of High-Entropy Fe-Co-Ni-Cr-Al-Si Thin Films
Soft magnetic properties of Fe-Co-Ni-Al-Cr-Si thin films were studied. As-deposited Fe-Co-Ni-Al-Cr-Si nano-grained thin films showing no magnetic anisotropy were subjected to field-annealing at different temperatures to induce magnetic anisotropy. Optimized magnetic and electrical properties of Fe-Co-Ni-Al-Cr-Si films annealed at 200 ◦C are saturation magnetization 9.13 × 105 A/m, coercivity 79...
متن کامل4 An ab - initio theoretical investigation of the soft - magnetic properties of permalloys
We study Ni 80 Fe 20-based permalloys with the relativistic spin-polarized Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker electronic structure method. Treating the compositional disorder with the coherent potential approximation, we investigate how the magnetocrys-talline anisotropy, K, and magnetostriction, λ, of Ni-rich Ni-Fe alloys vary with the addition of small amounts of non-magnetic transition metals, Cu and Mo...
متن کاملGrain-size dependence of intergranular magnetic correlations in nanostructured metals
Magnetic small-angle neutron scattering experiments were performed on nanostructured Fe, Co and Ni samples of varying grain size, produced by inert-gas condensation. The experiments show that the spontaneous spatial magnetic correlations forming in zero-field extend over many individual grains. These correlations depend strongly on grain size. In Fe, they have a minimum at a grain size of aroun...
متن کاملاثر آلایش Ni و Fe بر ناهنجاری هال در حالت گردشارهای نمونههای آلاییده YBCO
We have investigated hall effect on YBa2Cu3-xMxO7-δ (M=Ni, Fe) bulk samples, with dopant amount 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.045 for Ni and 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.03 for Fe, with magnetic field (H=2.52, 4.61, 6.27 kOe) perpendicular to sample’s surface with constant current 100 mA. Our study shows that as both dopants increases, TC decreases and it decreases faster by Ni . In these ranges of dopant and magnetic field the Hall...
متن کاملCombined ligand field and density functional theory analysis of the magnetic anisotropy in oligonuclear complexes based on Fe(III)-CN-M(II) exchange-coupled pairs.
Magnetic anisotropy in cyanide-bridged single-molecule magnets (SMMs) with Fe(III)-CN-M(II) (M = Cu, Ni) exchange-coupled pairs was analyzed using a density functional theory (DFT)-based ligand field model. A pronounced magnetic anisotropy due to exchange was found for linear Fe(III)-CN-M(II) units with fourfold symmetry. This results from spin-orbit coupling of the [Fe(III)(CN)6](3-) unit and ...
