The properties of nonequilibrium face-centered-cubic (fcc) and body-centered-cubic (bcc) Fe–Cu alloys were studied using the first-principles full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method within the generalized gradient approximation. The ab initio calculation results are compared quantitatively with the magnetic moment and atomic volume observed for mechanically alloyed FexCu100–x (x = 0 to 100) supersaturated bcc and fcc solid solutions. The calculations show that Cu alloying leads to a small enhancement of the magnetic moment of bcc Fe. The fcc Fe moment, on the other hand, experiences a more pronounced increase into a high-spin state upon alloying with Cu. It reaches approximately the same value as that in the bcc alloys for all Cu concentrations where fcc solutions are obtained in experiments, corroborating previous ab initio calculations using different methods. The magnetic moment increases are accompanied by an atomic volume expansion. Both the calculated moment and volume behavior are in good agreement with those measured for fcc and bcc Fe–Cu solutions. The magnetovolume expansion upon magnetic interaction between the alloyed Fe and Cu, rather than the positive heat of mixing, constitutes the primary reason for the atomic volume increase observed.

In this work the magnetic properties (exchange parameters, magnetic moment of non-stoichiometric Ni–Mn–Ga Heusler alloys with structural disorder by the help of ab initio calculations have been performed. Theoretical composition dependences of the total magnetic moment are in qualitative agreement in qualitative agreement with experimental data. Calculations of exchange parameters show that interactions between the Mn atoms in regular positions and Mn atoms in Ni and Ga positions are antiferromagnetic.

ABSTRACTWe have studied the effect that applying self-interaction correction (SIC) to oxygen p orbitals has on the magnetic moment formation of three polar ZnO surfaces; all of them being oxygen terminated. For these investigations we have used a multi-code approach. This has allowed us, on the one hand, to relax the surface structure using the pseudopotential code SIESTA. On the other hand, by using the obtained relaxed structures for calculations within the KKR Green’s function formalism, we have been able to apply SIC and use the magnetic force theorem for calculating Heisenberg exchange parameters. The latter contain information about both the strength of the interaction and the interaction mechanism.Our calculations show that all three surfaces are magnetic. In addition, we find that applying SIC is necessary to correctly describe the top oxygen atom of the (0001)-t and (0001)-h surfaces.
