We have performed a theoretical study of the effect of doping the half-Heusler alloy NiMnSb with the magnetic 3d metals Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni, with respect to both energetics and magnetic properties. Starting from the formation energies, we discuss the po ...
Magnetic order in graphene-related structures can arise from size effects or from topological frustration. We introduce a rigorous classification scheme for the types of finite graphene structures (nanoflakes) which lead to large net spin or to antiferroma ...
The magnetic properties of disordered graphene and irradiated graphite are systematically studied using a combination of mean-field Hubbard model and first-principles calculations. By considering large-scale disordered models of graphene, I conclude that o ...
Magnetic zigzag edges of graphene are considered as a basis for novel spintronics devices despite the fact that no true long-range magnetic order is possible in one dimension. We study the transverse and longitudinal fluctuations of magnetic moments at zig ...
The crystal structure and the magnetic ordering pattern of the electrically insulating perovskite CeVO3 was investigated by high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction and single-crystal neutron diffraction. A structural phase transition from an orthorhombic ...
We report low field studies of the static magnetic susceptibility and torque measurements in the temperature range 2-330 K for the powder and crystalline CuTe2O5 compound. We show that the observed extraordinarily large magnetic axis rotation below 20 K an ...
Coordination assemblies formed by metal(II) dithiocarbamates M-II(R(2)dtc)2 (M = Zn, Cd, Hg, Mn, and Fe; R = Me, Et, iPr, nPr, and nBu) and nitrogen-containing ligands (L = DABCO, DMP, and HMTA) are shown to be sterically well consistent with the spherical ...
The magnetic behavior of SmN has been investigated in stoichiometric polycrystalline films. All samples show ferromagnetic order with Curie temperature (T-C) of 27 3 K, evidenced by the occurrence of hysteresis below T-C. The ferromagnetic state is charact ...
We report a comprehensive study of transport, magnetotransport, and magnetic properties of single crystals of BaVSe3. The paramagnetic metal-ferromagnetic metal transition at 43 K was followed as a function of pressure by measuring the electrical resistivi ...
The magnetic and structural properties of epitaxial Fe films grown on Si(111) are investigated by polarized neutron re. ectometry (PNR) at room temperature. The influence of different types of interfaces, Fe/Si, Fe/FeSi2 and Au/Fe on the magnetic propertie ...
