电子和空穴掺杂对自旋轨道纠缠Ca $_\text{4}$ IrO $_\text{6}$磁性的影响(DFT计算)

摘要:

我们用从头算密度泛函理论研究了$J_\text{eff} = 1/2$铱酸盐Ca $_4$ IrO $_6$的电子结构和磁性,以及电子和空穴掺杂的影响.考虑自旋-轨道相互作用,我们的计算表明,虽然莫特绝缘母体化合物在掺杂后转变为导体,但反铁磁性在掺杂系统中保持不变,尽管自旋的排列非常不共线。我们发现一个强大的自旋-轨道相互作用和磁晶各向异性,导致系统中的挫折,可能导致非磁性掺杂后的自旋高度非共线排列。我们的研究结果可能是重要的自旋电子学的观点,使用铱酸盐或其他$5d$材料。

英文摘要:

We investigate the electronic structure and magnetic properties of a $J_\text{eff} = 1/2$ iridate Ca$_4$IrO$_6$ and the implications of doping electrons and holes using ab initio density functional theory. Our calculations considering spin-orbit interaction reveal that although the Mott-insulating parent compound transforms into a conductor upon doping, antiferromagnetism sustains in the doped system, albeit with a grossly noncollinear arrangement of the spins. We find a strong spin-orbit interaction and magneto-crystalline anisotropy, causing frustration in the system, possibly leading to the highly noncollinear arrangement of spins upon non-magnetic doping. Our results may be important from the viewpoint of spintronics using iridates or other $5d$ materials.
