摘要:

对于半金属材料,应存在一个半金属性的成分范围。该成分范围可用电子数表示并计算。我们研究了掺杂的全Heusler和半Heusler合金(分别对应化学计量比XYZ2和XYZ)的电子和磁性性质,其中X元素来自元素周期表第13-16族和第3-6周期,Y={Mn, Fe},Z={Co, Ni}。利用自旋密度泛函理论,我们预测了掺杂和固溶体合金中费米能的位移。这些预测可用于多组分半金属的带隙工程,并提供可行的成分范围,例如(Co$_{2-z}$Ni$_z$)(Mn$_{1-y}$Fe$_y$)(Sn$_{1-x}$Sb$_x$)中n=x+y+z的范围。这种针对掺杂和化学无序半金属合金的方法为电子结构工程提供了一种设计途径,可加速用于新型电子和自旋电子应用的半金属的开发。

英文摘要:

For a material that is a half-metal, there should exist a range of compositions for half-metallicity. This compositional range can be expressed in terms of electron count and computed. We investigate electronic and magnetic properties of doped full- and half-Heusler alloys (stoichiometry XYZ2 and XYZ, respectively) with elements X from groups 13-16 and periods 3-6 of the Periodic Table, Y={Mn, Fe}, and Z={Co, Ni}. Using spin density functional theory, we predict shifts of the Fermi energy in the doped and solid-solution alloys. These predictions can be used for band-gap engineering of multicomponent half-metals and provide the viable range of compositions, such as for a range of n=x+y+z in (Co$_{2-z}Ni_z)$(Mn$_{1-y}$Fe$_{y}$)(Sn$_{1-x}$Sb$_{x}$). This methodology for doped and chemically disordered half-metallic alloys offers a design approach to electronic-structure engineering that can accelerate development of half-metals for novel electronic and spintronic applications.
