Local magnetic moments of Fe1/VN nanoinclusions in bulk Fe

2003 
Abstract The local magnetic moments of Fe 1 /V N nanoinclusions in bulk Fe are determined by using a realistic spd -band Hubbard-like model. The spin density distribution is calculated self-consistenly in the unrestricted Hartree–Fock approximation. The local magnetic moments μ ( i ) are obtained at various atoms i of nanoinclusions and of the surrounding matrix. The Fe atoms couple always antiferromagnetically with the V atoms. In most cases the Fe moments close to the V atoms are reduced. A remarkable interplay between the paramagnetism of V and the ferromagnetism of Fe is obtained.
