Using first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that an Fe monolayer can assume very different magnetic phases on hexagonal hcp (0001) and fcc (111) surfaces of 4d- and 5d-transition metals. Due to the substrates d-band filling, the nearest-neighbor exchange coupling of Fe changes gradually from antiferromagnetic (AFM) for Fe films on Tc, Re, Ru and Os to ferromagnetic on Rh, Ir, Pd, and Pt. In combination with the topological frustration on the triangular lattice of these surfaces the AFM coupling results in a 120-degree Neel structure for Fe on Re and Ru and an unexpected double-row-wise AFM structure on Rh, which is a superposition of a left- and right-rotating 90-degree spin spiral.

Here we present a novel approach to control magnetic interactions in atomic-scale nanowires. Our ab initio calculations demonstrate the possibility to tune magnetic properties of Fe nanowires formed on vicinal Cu surfaces. Both intrawire and interwir
e magnetic exchange parameters are extracted from DFT calculations. This study suggests that the effective interwire magnetic exchange parameters exhibit Ruderman--Kittel--Kasuya--Yosida-like (RKKY) oscillations as a function of Fe interwire separation. The choice of vicinal Cu surface offers possibilities for controlling the magnetic coupling. Furthermore, an anisotropic Heisenberg model was used in Monte Carlo simulations to examine the stability of these magnetic configurations at finite temperature. The predicted critical temperatures of the Fe nanowires on Cu(422) and Cu(533) surfaces are well-above room temperature.
We demonstrate the occurrence of compensated spin configurations in Fe clusters and monolayers on Ru(0001) and Rh(111) by a combination of X-ray magnetic circular dichroism experiments and first-principles calculations. Our results reveal complex int
ra-cluster exchange interactions which depend strongly on the substrate 4$d$-band filling, the cluster geometry as well as lateral and vertical structural relaxations. The importance of substrate 4$d$-band filling manifests itself also in small nearest-neighbor exchange interactions in Fe dimers and in an nearly inverted trend of the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida coupling constants for Fe adatoms on the Ru and Rh surface.
We present a detailed first principles study on the magnetic structure of an Fe monolayer on different surfaces of 5d transition metals. We use the spin-cluster expansion technique to obtain parameters of a spin model, and predict the possible magnet
ic ground state of the studied systems by employing the mean field approach and in certain cases by spin dynamics calculations. We point out that the number of shells considered for the isotropic exchange interactions plays a crucial role in the determination of the magnetic ground state. In the case of Ta substrate we demonstrate that the out-of-plane relaxation of the Fe monolayer causes a transition from ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic ground state. We examine the relative magnitude of nearest neighbour Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (D) and isotropic (J) exchange interactions in order to get insight into the nature of magnetic pattern formations. For the Fe/Os(0001) system we calculate a very large D/J ratio, correspondingly, a spin spiral ground state. We find that, mainly through the leading isotropic exchange and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, the inward layer relaxation substantially influences the magnetic ordering of the Fe monolayer. For the Fe/Re(0001) system characterized by large antiferromagnetic interactions we also determine the chirality of the $120^{circ}$ Neel-type ground state.
We perform photoluminescence experiments at 4K on two different transition metal diselenide monolayers, namely MoSe2 and WSe2 in magnetic fields $B_z$ up to 9T applied perpendicular to the sample plane. In MoSe2 monolayers the valley polarization of
the neutral and the charged exciton (trion) can be tuned by the magnetic field, independent of the excitation laser polarization. In the investigated WSe2 monolayer sample the evolution of the trion valley polarization depends both on the applied magnetic field and the excitation laser helicity, while the neutral exciton valley polarization depends only on the latter. Remarkably we observe a reversal of the sign of the trion polarization between WSe2 and MoSe2. For both systems we observe a clear Zeeman splitting for the neutral exciton and the trion of about $pm2$meV at $B_zmp9$T. The extracted Land{e}-factors for both exciton complexes in both materials are $gapprox -4$.
Previous studies have accurately determined the effect of transition metal point defects on the properties of bcc iron. The magnetic properties of transition metal monolayers on the iron surfaces have been studied equally intensively. In this work, w
e investigated the magnetic properties of the 3d, 4d, and 5d transition-metal (TM) atomic monolayers in Fe/TM/Fe sandwiches using the full-potential local-orbital (FPLO) scheme of density functional theory. We prepared models of Fe/TM/Fe structures using the supercell method. We selected the total thickness of our system so that the Fe atomic layers furthest from the TM layer exhibit bulk iron-bcc properties. Along the direction perpendicular to the TM layer, we observe oscillations of spin and charge density. For Pt and W we obtained the largest values of perpendicular magnetocrystalline anisotropy and for Lu and Ir the largest values of in-plane magnetocrystalline anisotropy. All TM layers, except Co and Ni, reduce the total spin magnetic moment in the generated models, which is in good agreement with the Slater-Pauling curve. Density of states calculations showed that for Ag, Pd, Ir, and Au monolayers, a distinct van Hove singularity associated with TM/Fe interface can be observed at the Fermi level.
