Structural properties and magnetism of Fe overlayers on GaAs(0 0 1) surface
Creators
Description
We investigated the electronic and magnetic structure of Fe atoms grown on GaAs(0 0 1) surface, using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave method. From total energy calculations, it is proved that the system with Fe as a subsurface is much more stable compared to that with Fe as an overlayer. The outward diffusion of As atoms toward the surface is calculated to be responsible for the antiferromagnetism of Fe atoms grown on GaAs(0 0 1)
