Ln2@C79N EMFs are found to attain the largest magnetic coupling reported to date between Ln-radical paramagnetic centres. The obtained Ucal values are very large, and strong exchange likely to quench the QTM effects offers a great chance to obtain high blocking temperatures.

Density functional calculations have been performed on a series of {ReIV–MII} (M = Mn(1), Fe(2), Co(3), Ni(4), Cu(5)) complexes to compute the magnetic exchange interaction between the ReIV and MII ions, and understand the mechanism of magnetic coupling in this series.

Here we present a novel approach to controlling magnetic interactions between atomic-scale nanowires. Our ab initio calculations demonstrate the possibility to tune magnetic properties of Fe nanowires formed on vicinal Cu surfaces. Both intrawire and interwire magnetic exchange parameters are extracted from density functional theory (DFT) calculations. This study suggests that the effective interwire magnetic exchange parameters exhibit Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida-like (RKKY) oscillations as a function of Fe interwire separation. The choice of the vicinal Cu surface offers possibilities for controlling the magnetic coupling. Furthermore, an anisotropic Heisenberg model was used in Monte Carlo simulations to examine the stability of these magnetic configurations at finite temperatures. The predicted critical temperatures of the Fe nanowires on Cu(422) and Cu(533) surfaces are well above room temperature.

Abstract The magnetic exchange bias effect is one of the representative interlayer magnetic coupling phenomena and is widely utilized in numerous technological applications. However, its mechanism is still elusive even in a simple magnetic bilayered system because of the complex interface magnetic orders. Van der Waals layered magnetic materials may provide an essential platform for deeply understanding the detailed mechanism of the exchange bias owing to its ideal interface structure. Here we first observed the positive exchange-biased anomalous Hall effect (AHE) with a hopping switching behavior in the FeGeTe Van der Waals nano-flakes. After systemically studying the cooling field dependence properties of the exchange bias effect, we propose that the coexistence of stable and frustrated surface magnetization of the antiferromagnetic phase will modify the total interface coupling energy density between the ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases. This model could provide a consistent description for such unusual exchange bias effect based on microspin simulation.

A superexchange interaction path between Fe–Fe in (FeCl4)2(py·H)3Cl is illustrated making use of electronic spin density maps (ESDM) and the magnetic coupling constant is calculated using the BS-DFT method as JFe–Fe = 13.2062 kJ mol−1.

ABSTRACTWhen two magnetic films are separated by a nonmagnetic film, pinholes in the nonmagnetic film can allow direct contact and, thereby, direct magnetic exchange coupling between the two magnetic films. We have studied this coupling by having one of the magnetic films pinned and leaving the other free to switch at low field. The pinning is accomplished with test structures based on exchange bias and synthetic antiferromagnetic layers. Since the pinning strength increases sharply at low temperatures but orange-peel coupling does not, low-temperature (77 K) measurements appear to identify whether an observed coupling arises primarily from magnetic coupling through pinholes or primarily from orange-peel roughness. Our measurements appear to indicate that the observed coupling arises primarily from magnetic coupling through pinholes for Cu films less than 2.1 nm thick and for Al2O3films less than 0.6 nm thick but primarily from roughness-induced (orange-peel) magnetostatic coupling for larger thicknesses.

Following the recent synthesis of graphene–based antiferromagnetic ultrathin heterostructures made of Co and Fe, we analyse the effect of the spacer between both ferromagnetic materials. Using density functional calculations, we carried out an exhaustive study of the geometric, electronic and magnetic properties for intercalated single Co MLs on top of Ir(111) coupled to monolayered Fe through n graphene layers (n = 1, 2, 3) or monolayered h-BN. Different local atomic arrangements have been considered to model the Moiré patterns expected in these heterostructures. The magnetic exchange interactions between both ferromagnets ( J C o − F e ) are computed from explicit calculations of parallel and anti-parallel Fe/Co inter–layer alignments, and discussed in the context of recent experiments. Our analysis confirms that the robust antiferromagnetic superexchange–coupling between Fe and Co layers is mediated by the graphene spacer through the hybridization of C’s p z orbitals with Fe and Co’s 3d states. The hybridization is substantially suppressed for multilayered graphene spacers, for which the magnetic coupling between ferromagnets is critically reduced, suggesting the need for ultrathin (monolayer) spacers in the design of synthetic graphene-based antiferromagnets. In the case of h–BN, p z orbitals also mediate d(Fe/Co) coupling. However, there is a larger contribution of local ferromagnetic interactions. Magnetic anisotropy energies were also calculated using a fully relativistic description, and show out–of–plane easy axis for all the configurations, with remarkable net values in the range from 1 to 4 meV.
