摘要:

为了探索双钙钛矿结构Sr 2-xYxVMoO 6和Sr 2-xYxVTcO 6的半金属性质,我们构建了一个有效的低能模型,该模型描述了这些化合物的t2 g态行为。该模型的所有参数都是基于第一性原理电子结构计算严格导出的。为了求解该模型,我们采用了优化有效势方法,并在无规相位近似下处理了相关相互作用。虽然相关相互作用大大减少了原子内交换分裂的Hartree-Fock方法相比,这种分裂仍然大大超过了局域自旋密度近似(LSDA),这改变了许多预测的基础上LSDA获得的典型值。我们的主要结果概括如下:(i)所有的铁磁态都是半金属态。然而,它们的能量一般高于V-和Mo/Tc-站点(除Sr 2 VMoO 6)之间的亚铁磁有序;(ii)所有亚铁磁状态是金属(除完全绝缘Y2 VTcO 6)和没有半金属反铁磁性已被发现;(iii)此外,许多亚铁磁结构似乎是不稳定的自旋螺旋对齐。因此,这些系统中的大多数的真磁基态预计将更加复杂。此外,我们还讨论了与磁性半金属态和绝缘态的有效势的非唯一性有关的几个方法学问题。

英文摘要:

In attempt to explore half-metallic properties of the double perovskites Sr2-xYxVMoO6 and Sr2-xYxVTcO6, we construct an effective low-energy model, which describes the behavior of the t2g-states of these compounds. All parameters of such model are derived rigorously on the basis of first-principles electronic structure calculations. In order to solve this model we employ the optimized effective potential method and treat the correlation interactions in the random phase approximation. Although correlation interactions considerably reduce the intraatomic exchange splitting in comparison with the Hartree-Fock method, this splitting still substantially exceeds the typical values obtained in the local-spin-density approximation (LSDA), which alters many predictions based on the LSDA. Our main results are summarized as follows: (i) all ferromagnetic states are expected to be half-metallic. However, their energies are generally higher than those of the ferrimagnetic ordering between V- and Mo/Tc-sites (except Sr2VMoO6); (ii) all ferrimagnetic states are metallic (except fully insulating Y2VTcO6) and no half-metallic antiferromagnetism has been found; (iii) moreover, many of the ferrimagnetic structures appear to be unstable with respect to the spin-spiral alignment. Thus, the true magnetic ground state of the most of these systems is expected to be more complex. In addition, we discuss several methodological issues related to the nonuniqueness of the effective potential for the magnetic half-metallic and insulating states.
