Using density functional theory combined LSDA+U method, the structural, electronic and magnetic behaviors of ytterbium implanted in wurtzite AlN were investigated. Low formation energy shows that Yb atom favors to substitute for Al site and to confirm this stability, the adsorption energy has been calculated. It is found that Al[Formula: see text]Yb[Formula: see text]N possesses a semiconductor behavior. The magnetic moment 0.9891 [Formula: see text] per molecule principally comes from Yb ion with small contribution from the Al and N atoms. We predict that Yb ions order ferromagnetically in AlN. The hybridization between the f orbital of the Yb atom and the p orbital of the N atom is also observed. We see that AlN:Yb will be among the good candidates for spintronic applications.

Electronic And Magnetic Properties

<p>Electronic and magnetic properties of La<sub>4</sub>Ba<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>2</sub>O<sub>10</sub> had been studied by first-principles density functional theory (DFT). Based on the DFT calculation La<sub>4</sub>Ba<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>2</sub>O<sub>10</sub> is found to have a ferromagnetic (FM) ground state. The material undergo charge-transfer type insulator to Mott-Hubbard type insulator transition which happens due to strong correlation in La-4f and Cu-3d states. Our results show that the 3d electrons of Cu hybridize strongly with O-2p states near the Fermi level giving rise to the insulating state of La<sub>4</sub>Ba<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>2</sub>O<sub>10</sub>. Our study suggests that the enhanced magnetic moment is a result of itinerant exchange rather than the exchange interaction involving individual ions of Cu atoms. The total magnetic moment calculated in the present studies is 2 μ<sub>B</sub> per unit cell for La<sub>4</sub>Ba<sub>2</sub>Cu<sub>2</sub>O<sub>10</sub>.</p><p>Journal of Nepal Physical Society Vol.3(1) 2015: 89-96</p>

Structures, binding energies, magnetic and electronic properties endohedrally doped C 20 fullerenes by metallic atoms ( Fe , Co , Ti and V ) have been obtained by pseudopotential density functional theory. All M @ C 20, except Co @ C 20, are more stable than the undoped C 20 cage. The magnetic moment values are 1 and 2μB. These values and semiconductor behavior give to these compounds interesting feature in several technological applications. Titanium doped C 20 has a same magnetic moment than the isolated Ti atom. Hybridization process in the Co doped C 20 fullerene is most strong than in other doped cages. Electrical and magnetic dipoles calculated in the iron doped C 20 are very strong compared with other clusters.

The optimized geometries, stability, and magnetic properties of cationic clusters Si7+, Si6Mn+, and Si5Mn2+ have been determined by the method of density functional theory using the B3P86/6-311+G(d) functional/basis set. Their electronic configurations have been analyzed to understand the influence of substituting Si atoms by Mn atoms on the structural and magnetic aspects of Si7+. It is shown that the manganese dopant does not alter the structure of the silicon host but significantly changes its stability and magnetism. In particular, while the magnetic moment of Si7+ is 1 mB, Si5Mn2+ exhibits a strong magnetic moment of 9 mB and that of Si6Mn+ takes a relatively high value of 4 mB. Among studied clusters, the pentagonal bipyramid Si5Mn2+ is assigned as the most stable one.
