摘要:

互作用势对于磁性材料的分子动力学模拟至关重要,但将磁性特征纳入复杂反铁磁体的势能中仍然具有挑战性。镍氧化物(NiO)是一种典型的立方反铁磁体,体现了这种困难。本文开发了一种方法,通过添加包含Heisenberg交换和Néel模型的磁Hamiltonian,将磁性特性整合到立方反铁磁体的互作用势中。我们应用这种方法到NiO上,构建了两种势能:一种基于离子固体的Born模型,另一种使用参考自由修改的嵌入原子方法。两种势能均包含磁弹性相互作用,并通过密度泛函理论计算验证,显示出在零温度下机械和磁性性质的优异一致性。这些模型使大规模模拟反铁磁体的磁弹性现象成为可能,并为涉及耦合电场和磁场的金属氧化物分子动力学研究开辟了新途径。

英文摘要:

Interatomic potentials are essential for molecular dynamics simulations of magnetic materials, yet incorporating magnetic features into potentials for complex antiferromagnets remains challenging. Nickel oxide (NiO), a prototypical cubic antiferromagnet, exemplifies this difficulty. Here we develop a methodology to integrate magnetic properties into interatomic potentials for cubic antiferromagnets by adding a magnetic Hamiltonian which includes both the Heisenberg exchange and Néel model. We apply this approach to NiO by constructing two potentials: one based on the Born model of ionic solids and another using a reference-free modified embedded atom method. Both potentials include magnetoelastic interactions and are validated against Density Functional Theory calculations, showing excellent agreement in mechanical and magnetic properties at zero temperature. These models enable large-scale simulations of magnetoelastic phenomena in antiferromagnets and open avenues for molecular dynamics studies involving coupled electric and magnetic fields in metal oxides.
