Ab initio study of electronic and magnetic properties of Cr-doped ZnSe compound		  pdf 

ABSTRACT

The electronic and magnetic properties of the Cr 3d transition element doped ZnSe compound were studied using the At-omistic ToolKit calculation program using the density functional theory and the local spin density approximation. The band structure and density of states for Zn(Cr)Se were calculated from first principles, and the magnetic properties of the compound were investigated. From total energy calculations, it was determined that the arrangement of ferromagnetic spins is more stable than the arrangement of antiferromagnetic spins. The temperature of the Curie compound was estimated and it was established that ZnSe:Cr is a semi-metallic ferromagnetic compound and a promising material for using in a spintronic.

Keywords: ZnSe:Cr, magnetic moment, ferromagnetic, half-metal.
