Magnetism of small Mn clusters

The role of structure on the magnetic properties of Mn clusters is investigated by performing calculations for different growth families, icosahedral, bcc and fee. The spin-polarized electronic properties of these geometries are calculated by solving an spd tight-binding Hubbard-like Hamiltonian in...
