ABINIT program package based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) within the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) and plane wave basis set are used to calculate the magnetic properties of Mn doped NiO. It was found that the magnetic properties of Mn doped NiO were changed from anti-ferromagnetic (pure NiO) to ferromagnetism. Increasing the concentrations of Mn, the magnetization of Mn doped NiO were increased (Ni31MnO32 = 66.69 µB, Ni30Mn2O32 = 69.59 µB and Ni29Mn3O32 = 72.42 µB).

The geometries, stabilities, electronic and magnetic properties of small GdnO3(n=1-5) clusters have been systematically studied by using density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation. We found that the Gd atoms and O atoms in GdnO3clusters prefer three and two coordination, respectively, which origin from the electronic configurations of Gd and O atoms. The results show that Gd2O3cluster is more stable than its respective neighbors, which is reflected from its high average binding energy and high HOMO-LUMO gap. In addition, we calculate the magnetic properties of GdnO3clusters. The local magnetic moments of the Gd atom in the GdnO3clusters exhibit a weak dependence on the O atoms, which are slightly enhanced with the increasing of the number of Gd atom.

The magnetic properties of the perovskite manganites LaMnO3(LMO) and La2/3Al1/3MnO3(LAMO) was presented. The calculations were made within density functional theory and generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) exchange correlations energy. It was found that LAMO exhibit magnetic properties and stabilizes in antiferromagnetic structure. However cell magnetization and magnetic moments reduce with inclusion of Al dopant.

The Density Functional Theory

The geometric, electronic, and magnetic properties of Ho-doped Sin (n=1-12, 16, and 18) clusters are studied via the density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximation. The results show that the Ho atom in the most stable HoSin clusters always occupies the surface site. Starting from n=18, the Ho atom abruptly drops into the center of Si frame, forming the Ho-encapsulated Si cages. The stabilities of HoSin clusters increase with increasing size n. The Ho atom in HoSin clusters enhances their chemical activities. Moreover, the magnetisms of HoSin clusters are independent of their geometric structures, and the Si and Ho atoms are antiferromagnetic.
