石墨烯纳米片中杂质自旋间的RKKY耦合

The RKKY Coupling between Impurity Spins in Graphene Nanoflakes

Karol Szałowski

摘要:

我们计算了间接载流子介导的Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida(RKKY)磁性杂质之间的相互作用,两个选定的石墨烯纳米片包含四个六方环的结构,不同的几何形状。我们描述的电子结构的电荷中性或掺杂纳米片使用紧束缚近似与哈伯德项,这是治疗内的分子场近似。我们发现RKKY耦合能量的显著差异,依赖于纳米结构中的磁矩对的位置和边缘形式。对于一个奇数的总电子数的结构中,我们预测在某些情况下,存在的铁磁耦合与领先的一阶微扰贡献,而对于偶数的载流子通常的,二阶机制占主导地位。因此,发现用单个载流子掺杂纳米片能够将耦合从反铁磁性改变为对于某些几何形状的铁磁性。

英文摘要:

We calculate the indirect charge carrier mediated Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction between magnetic impurities for two selected graphene nanoflakes containing four hexagonal rings in their structure, differing by their geometry. We describe the electronic structure of either charge-neutral or doped nanoflakes using the tight-binding approximation with the Hubbard term, which is treated within the molecular-field approximation. We find pronounced differences in the RKKY coupling energies, dependent on the placement of the pair of magnetic moments in the nanostructure and on the edge form. For an odd total number of electrons in the structure, we predict in some circumstances the existence of ferromagnetic coupling with leading first-order perturbational contribution, while for an even number of charge carriers the usual, second-order mechanism dominates. Therefore, doping of the nanoflake with a single charge carrier is found to be able to change the coupling from an antiferromagnetic to a ferromagnetic one for some geometries.
