摘要: We present results of density-functional calculations on the magnetic properties Cr, Mn, Fe and Co nano-clusters (1 to 9 atoms large) supported Cu(001) Cu(111). The inter-atomic exchange coupling is found depend competing mechanisms, namely ferromagnetic double antiferromagnetic kinetic exchange. Hybridization-induced broadening resonances shown be important for strength. cluster shape weaken via a mechanism that comprises different orientation atomic d-orbitals strength nearest-neighbour hopping. Especially in clusters, correlation binding energy also revealed.
