Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a theoretical study of the transport properties of a CrAs/GaAs/CrAs trilayer. The theory was based on a first principles method for calculating the electronic structure, in combination with a Kubo-Landauer approach for calculating the transport properties in a current perpendicular to the plane geometry. We have also investigated the electronic structure and the magnetic properties of this trilayer, with special focus on electronic and magnetic properties at the CrAs/GaAs interface. Finally, we have studied the effects of chemical disorder on the transport properties, in particular the influence of As antisites at both the Cr and Ga sites.

Origin of the negative giant magnetoresistance effect in Co1-xCrx/Cu/Co (111) trilayers
- 2004

In: Physical Review B. Condensed Matter and Materials Physics. - 1098-0121 .- 1550-235X. ; 69:9, s. 092406-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a theoretical study on Co1-xCrx/Cu/Co (111) trilayers, where a transition from positive to negative giant magnetoresistance effect has been observed experimentally, with increasing thickness of the alloyed layer. The theory, based on a recently implemented conductance calculation, reproduces quantitatively this observation, and the effect is found to be caused by alloying effects, due to a virtual bound Cr d state in the majority spin channel of the Co-Cr layer.

Magnetic percolation in diluted magnetic semiconductors
- 2004
-
In: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007 .- 1079-7114. ; 93:13, s. 137202-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We demonstrate that the magnetic properties of diluted magnetic semiconductors are dominated by short ranged interatomic exchange interactions that have a strong directional dependence. By combining first principles calculations of interatomic exchange interactions with a classical Heisenberg model and Monte Carlo simulations, we reproduce the observed critical temperatures of a broad range of diluted magnetic semiconductors. We also show that agreement between theory and experiment is obtained only when the magnetic atoms are randomly positioned. This suggests that the ordering of diluted magnetic semiconductors is heavily influenced by magnetic percolation, and that the measured critical temperatures should be very sensitive to details in the sample preparation, in agreement with observations.

Landauer theory of ballistic torkances in noncollinear spin valves
- 2009

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a theory of voltage-induced spin-transfer torques in ballistic noncollinear spin valves. The torkance on one ferromagnetic layer is expressed in terms of scattering coefficients of the whole spin valve, in analogy to the Landauer conductance formula. The theory is applied to Co/Cu/Ni(001)-based systems where long-range oscillations of the Ni torkance as a function of Ni thickness are predicted. The oscillations represent a novel quantum size effect due to the noncollinear magnetic structure. The oscillatory behavior of the torkance contrasts a thickness-independent trend of the conductance.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The electronic structure and magnetism of selected diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) is reviewed. It is argued that the effect of antisite defects plays an important role in the magnetism of DMS materials and that these defects lower the saturation moment and ordering temperature. We also show that the interatomic exchange of these materials is short ranged. By combining first principles calculations of interatomic exchange interactions with a classical Heisenberg model and Monte Carlo simulations, we show that-the observed critical temperatures of a broad range of diluted magnetic semiconductors, involving Mn-doped GaAs and GaN as well as Cr-doped ZnTe, are reproduced with good accuracy. We show that agreement between theory and experiment is obtained only when the magnetic atoms are randomly positioned on the Ga (or Zn) sites. This suggests that the ordering of DMS materials is heavily influenced by magnetic percolation and that the measured critical temperatures should be very sensitive to details in the sample preparation, in agreement with observations.
