Interface Electronic And Magnetic Structures Of Layered Fe In Contact With MgO
Keyword(s):
ABSTRACTA model based on the state-of-the-art, first-principles layer Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (LKKR) method has proven to be very effective in describing the electronic and magnetic structure of metal/ceramic interfaces. We have performed self-consistent field computations incorporating spin polarization both for Fe/MgO superlattice (bulk technique) and for MgO/Fe/MgO sandwich (layer technique) systems. Muffin-tin potentials were employed for both materials in our computations. Iron layer was embedded in MgO, the host material, to have a [110](100)Fe / [100](100)MgO contact configuration. A large enhancement of magnetic moments has been found at the interface.
