چکیده

Spin fluctuations in nearly magnetic metals from ab-initio dynamical spin susceptibility calculations: application to P d and Cr 95 V 5 Abstract We describe our theoretical formalism and computational scheme for making ab-initio calculations of the dynamic paramagnetic spin susceptibilities of metals and alloys at finite temperatures. Its basis is Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory within an electronic multiple scattering, imaginary time Green function formalism. Results receive a natural interpretation in terms of overdamped oscillator systems making them suitable for incorporation into spin fluctuation theories. For illustration we apply our method to the nearly ferromagnetic metal P d and the nearly antiferromagnetic chromium alloy Cr 95 V 5. We compare and contrast the spin dynamics of these two metals and in each case identify those fluctuations with relaxation times much longer than typical electronic 'hopping times'.

Anisotropic and incommensurate spin fluctuations in hcp iron and some other nearly magnetic metals

Anisotropic and incommensurate spin fluctuations in hcp iron and some other nearly magnetic metals. Abstract We present an ab initio theoretical formalism for the static paramagnetic spin susceptibility of metals at finite temperatures. Since relativistic effects, e.g. spin-orbit coupling, are included we can identify the anisotropy or easy axes of the spin fluctuations. Our calculations find h...

Linear Response Calculations of Spin Fluctuations

A variational formulation of the time–dependent linear response based on the Sternheimer method is developed in order to make practical ab initio calculations of dynamical spin susceptibilities of solids. Using gradient density functional and a muffin–tin–orbital representation, the efficiency of the approach is demonstrated by applications to selected magnetic and strongly paramagnetic metals....

of 3d transition metals (Sc, Ti, Cr, Mn , Fe, Co, Ni) in both far and close situations were studied based on spin polarised density functional theory using the generalized gradient approximation (LDA) with SIESTA code. The electronic structures show that zigzag (0,9) GaAs nanotubes are non-magnetic semiconductors with direct band gap. It was revealed that doping of 11.11 % Fe and Mn concentrati...
