ABSTRACTYFe2H4 is a ferromagnetic metal with magnetization higher than the Laves phase parent compound, YFe2. Here, the electronic and magnetic properties of YFe2H4 are studied using density functional calculations, in order to elucidate the reasons for this. The electronic structure of YFe2H4 differs from that of YFe2 both because of the lattice expansion upon hydriding and because of chemical interactions involving H. However, the main reason for the increased magnetization is found to be the lattice expansion.

The study of Cr2O3 magneto-electric material, particularly, the profound understanding of its antiferro-magnetic, is vital for its spintronics applications. In this paper, we present a study on electronic and magnetic properties of Cr2O3 crystal using the first-principles calculations based on the density functional theory. For more accurate results, additional Hubbard (U) parameter has been employed to GGA as well. Our calculated results are homogeneous with available experimental measurements. Results show the effects produced by GGA+U method upon the electronic and magnetic features of the material. We prove that, the spherically symmetric GGA+U approach for exchange correlation approximation portray is a superior depiction of electronic and magnetic properties of Cr2O3.

ABSTRACTThe electronic structure and magnetic properties of rhodium clusters with sizes of 1 - 43 atoms embedded in the nickel host are studied by the first-principles spin-polarized calculations within the local density functional formalism. Single Rh atom in Ni matrix is found to have magnetic moment of 0.45μB. Rh13 and Rhl 9 clusters in Ni matrix have lower magnetic moments compared with the free ones. The most interesting finding is tha.t Rh43 cluster, which is bulk-like nonmagnetic in vacuum, becomes ferromagnetic when embedded in the nickel host.
