AbstractTransition metals doped ZnO are possible candidates for multiferroics. Here, we have investigated the evolution of ferromagnetism due to Co dopants. The magnetic properties have been studied for Co concentrations from 0 to 100% by using ab-initio methods, i.e., KKR Green's function techniques. In order to estimate the Curie temperature we have performed Monte Carlo simulations with ab-initio calculated exchange parameters.From our calculations the onset of ferromagnetism occurs between 5 to 20% of Co depending on the numerical details of KKR method used. For Co concentrations larger than 50% the system is dominated by antiferromagnetic coupling and no Curie temperature can be obtained.

We employed density functional theory, Monte Carlo simulations and a mean field model to study phase separation in thermoelectric Ni(Ti,Zr)(Sb,Sn) half-Heusler materials, simultaneously alloyed in the (Ti,Zr)- and (Sb,Sn) sublattices.
