Abstract Here, we report a theoretical investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of two oxohalide compounds, namely Cu3(SeO3)2Cl2 and Cu3(TeO3)2Br2, using Density Functional Theory (DFT). These layered systems are characterized by two inequivalent Cu sites, with CuO4 and CuO4X (X = Cl, Br) environments, respectively. A new magnetic model is proposed through the calculation of the magnetic exchange couplings. Our study discloses the participation of the Se and Te lone-pairs to the long-range magnetic order, providing potential key informations for future chemical design of original magnetic systems.

AbstractUsing density functional theory (DFT), we performed theoretical investigation on structural, energetic, electronic, and magnetic properties of pure armchair silicene nanoribbons with edges terminated with hydrogen atoms (ASiNRs:H), and the absorptions of silicon (Si) atom(s) on the top of ASiNRs:H. The calculated results show that Si atoms prefer to adsorb on the top site of ASiNRs:H and form the single- and/or di-adatom defects depending on the numbers. Si absorption defect(s) change electronic and magnetic properties of ASiNRs:H. Depending on the adsorption site the band gap of ASiNRs:H can be larger or smaller. The largest band gap of 1 Si atom adsorption is 0.64 eV at site 3, the adsorption of 2 Si atoms has the largest band gap of 0.44 eV at site 1-D, while the adsorption at sites5 and 1-E turn into metallic. The formation energies of Si adsorption show that adatom defects in ASiNRs:H are more preferable than pure ASiNRs:H with silicon atom(s). 1 Si adsorption prefers to be added on the top site of a Si atom and form a single-adatom defect, while Si di-adatom defect has lower formation energy than the single-adatom and the most energetically favorable adsorption is at site 1-F. Si adsorption atoms break spin-degeneracy of ASiNRs:H lead to di-adatom defect at site 1-G has the highest spin moment. Our results suggest new ways to engineer the band gap and magnetic properties silicene materials.

AbstractIn this paper, we have studied the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of the cubic perovskite system Mn4N using the first principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). The obtained data from DFT calculations are used as input data in Monte Carlo simulation with a mixed spin-5/2 and 1 Ising model to calculate the magnetic properties of this compound, such as the total, partial thermal magnetization, and the critical temperatures (TC). The obtained results show that Mn4N has a ferrimagnetic structure with two different sites of Mn in the lattice and presents a metallic behavior. The obtained TC is in good agreement with experimental results.

We used the first principle of density functional theory to perform detailed calculations regarding the structure, and the electronic and magnetic properties of MX (M[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]Ga, In; X[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]S, Se, Te) nanoribbons. The armchair nanoribbons (ARNs) are nonmagnetic semiconductors, which have even or odd oscillations of bandgaps. All small-sized zigzag nanoribbons (ZRNs) were found to break the six-membered ring structure and move to the center, thereby exhibiting nonmagnetic semiconductor behavior owing to the quantum confinement effect. However, among the large ZRNs, which are all metals, MTe ZRNs are nonmagnetic; this differs from the case of graphene, MoS2 and Ti2CO2 nanoribbons. MX (M[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]Ga, In; X[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]S, Se) ZRNs exhibited ferromagnetism owing to the presence of the unpaired electrons on the metal-edge side and the magnetic moment of each pair of molecules, which was controlled by the size of the nanoribbons. The results provided a theoretical reference that can be used in the future to produce MX materials for application in low-dimensional semiconductor devices, spin electron transport devices and new magnetoresistance devices.
