摘要:

用第一性原理电子结构计算方法研究了BaFe $_{2}$ As $_{2}$(001)表面的磁性.我们发现,对于As终止表面的磁性基态的顶层FeAs是在交错的二聚体反铁磁(AFM)秩序,而Ba终止表面的共线(单条纹)AFM秩序是最稳定的。当Ba或K原子覆盖到As表面时,计算得到的BaFe $_{2}$ As $_{2}$(001)上顶层FeAs的原子力显微镜能级差减小,表明自旋涨落增强.为了确定新的交错的二聚体AFM秩序的终止,我们模拟了扫描隧道显微镜(STM)图像为这个状态,它显示了不同的$\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2}$图案的情况下,半钡覆盖。我们的研究结果表明:(1)表面掺杂可以有效地调节BaFe $_{2}$ As $_{2}$(001)上顶层FeAs的磁性;(2)表面终止和顶层FeAs中的原子力显微镜有序度都可以影响BaFe $_{2}$ As $_{2}$(001)的STM图像。

英文摘要:

The magnetic properties of BaFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$(001) surface have been studied by using first-principles electronic structure calculations. We find that for As-terminated surface the magnetic ground state of the top-layer FeAs is in the staggered dimer antiferromagnetic (AFM) order, while for Ba-terminated surface the collinear (single stripe) AFM order is the most stable. When a certain coverage of Ba or K atoms are deposited onto the As-terminated surface, the calculated energy differences among different AFM orders for the top-layer FeAs on BaFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$(001) can be much reduced, indicating enhanced spin fluctuations. To identify the novel staggered dimer AFM order for the As termination, we have simulated the scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) image for this state, which shows a different $\sqrt{2}\times\sqrt{2}$ pattern from the case of half Ba coverage. Our results suggest: i) the magnetic properties of the top-layer FeAs on BaFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$(001) can be tuned effectively by surface doping; ii) both the surface termination and the AFM order in the top-layer FeAs can affect the STM image of BaFe$_{2}$As$_{2}$(001).
