Suppression of local magnetic moment formation and paramagnetic exchange interactions in monolayer Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$

We study the electronic and magnetic properties of monolayer Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ within the DFT+DMFT approach in the paramagnetic phase. We argue that this compound is sufficiently far from the local magnetic moment limit, demonstrating non-linear temperature dependencies of the partial inverse local and uniform magnetic susceptibilities in a broad temperature range. We find that in the regime of moderate Coulomb interactions ($U=3-4$ eV), the iron atoms located above and below the Ge plane carry a substantial local magnetic moment ($μ\gtrsim 4.5 μ_B$), while the iron atom located within the Ge plane does not exhibit any pronounced magnetic moment. At the same time, the RKKY-type exchange interactions between these two symmetry-nonequivalent types of atoms turn out to be crucial for stabilizing long-range ferromagnetic order in Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$. The estimated spin-wave stiffness and Curie temperature are in good agreement with the experimental data, indicating that a dynamical treatment of electron correlations in Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ is essential to properly describe its partially itinerant magnetic behavior.

Quantum simulator to emulate lower dimensional molecular structure

Bottom-up quantum simulators have been developed to quantify the role of various interactions, dimensionality, and structure in creating electronic states of matter. Here, we demonstrated a solid-state quantum simulator emulating molecular orbitals, based solely on positioning individual cesium atoms on an indium antimonide surface. Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, combined with ab initio calculations, we showed that artificial atoms could be made from localized states created from patterned cesium rings. These artificial atoms served as building blocks to realize artificial molecular structures with different orbital symmetries. These corresponding molecular orbitals allowed us to simulate 2D structures reminiscent of well known organic molecules. This platform could further be used to monitor the interplay between atomic structures and the resulting molecular orbital landscape with sub-molecular precision.

Spin-orbit coupling and magnetic interactions in Si(111):{C,Si,Sn,Pb}

We study the magnetic properties of the adatom systems on a semiconductor surface Si(111):\{C,Si,Sn,Pb\} - ($\sqrt{3} \times \sqrt{3}$). On the basis of all-electron density functional theory calculations we construct effective low-energy models taking into account spin-orbit coupling and electronic correlations. In the ground state the surface nanostructures are found to be insulators with the non-collinear 120$^{\circ}$ Néel (for C, Si, Sn monolayer coverages) and 120$^{\circ}$ row-wise (for Pb adatom) antiferromagnetic orderings. The corresponding spin Hamiltonians with anisotropic exchange interactions are derived by means of the superexchange theory and the calculated Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions are revealed to be very strong and compatible with the isotropic exchange couplings in the systems with Sn and Pb adatoms. To simulate the excited magnetic states we solve the constructed spin models by means of the Monte Carlo method. At low temperatures and zero magnetic field we observe complex spin spiral patterns in Sn/Si(111) and Pb/Si(111). On this basis the formation of antiferromagnetic skyrmion lattice states in adatom $sp$ electron systems in strong magnetic fields is discussed.

Hybridization and spin-orbit coupling effects in quasi-one-dimensional spin-1/2 magnet Ba3Cu3Sc4O12

We study electronic and magnetic properties of the quasi-one-dimensional spin-1/2 magnet Ba3Cu3Sc4O12 with a distinct orthogonal connectivity of CuO4 plaquettes. An effective low-energy model taking into account spin-orbit coupling was constructed by means of first-principles calculations. On this basis a complete microscopic magnetic model of Ba3Cu3Sc4O12, including symmetric and antisymmetric anisotropic exchange interactions, is derived. The anisotropic exchanges are obtained from a distinct first-principles numerical scheme combining, on one hand, the local density approximation taking into account spin-orbit coupling, and, on the other hand, projection procedure along with the microscopic theory by Toru Moriya. The resulting tensors of the symmetric anisotropy favor collinear magnetic order along the structural chains with the leading ferromagnetic coupling J1 = -9.88 meV. The interchain interactions J8 = 0.21 meV and J5 = 0.093 meV are antiferromagnetic. Quantum Monte Carlo simulations demonstrated that the proposed model reproduces the experimental Neel temperature, magnetization and magnetic susceptibility data. The modeling of neutron diffraction data reveals an important role of the covalent Cu-O bonding in Ba3Cu3Sc4O12.
