We study Ni80Fe20-based permalloys with the relativistic spin-polarized Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker electronic structure method. Treating the compositional disorder with the coherent potential approximation, we investigate how the magnetocrystalline anisotropy, K, and magnetostriction, lambda, of Ni-rich Ni-Fe alloys vary with the addition of small amounts of non-magnetic transition metals, Cu and Mo. From our calculations we follow the trends in K and lambda and find the compositions of Ni-Fe-Cu and Ni-Fe-Mo where both are near zero. These high permeability compositions of Ni-Fe-Cu and Ni-Fe-Mo match well with those discovered experimentally. We monitor the connection of the magnetic anisotropy with the number of minority spin electrons, Nmin. By raising Nmin via artificially increasing the band-filling of Ni80Fe20, we are able to reproduce the key features that underpin the magnetic softening we find in the ternary alloys. The effect of band-filling on the dependence of magnetocrystalline anisotropy on atomic short-range order in Ni80Fe20 is also studied. Our calculations, based on a static concentration wave theory, indicate that the susceptibility of the high permeability of the Ni-Fe-Cu and Ni-Fe-Mo alloys to their annealing conditions is also strongly dependent on the alloys compositions. An ideal soft magnet appears from these calculations.
Electronic structure of FeGa3 has been studied using experiments and ab-initio calculations. Magnetization measurements show that FeGa3 is inherently diamagnetic in nature. Our studies indicate that the previously reported magnetic moment on the Fe a
We study the electronic structure of the Re(0001) surface by means of ab-initio techniques based on the Fully Relativistic (FR) Density Functional Theory (DFT) and the Projector Augmented-Wave (PAW) method. We identify the main surface states and res
We have combined the Boltzmann transport equation with an {it ab initio} approach to compute the thermoelectric coefficients of semiconductors. Electron-phonon, ionized impurity, and electron-plasmon scattering rates have been taken into account. The
