Itinerant origin of the ferromagnetic quantum critical point in Fe(Ga,Ge)3

الأصل · EN

The electronic structure and magnetic properties of FeGa3 and doped FeGa3 are studied using density functional calculations. An itinerant mechanism for ferromagnetism is found both for n-type doping with Ge and also for p-type doping. Boltzmann transport calculations of the thermopower are also reported.
