Real-space presentation of the magnetic anisotropy of metallic ferromagnets
A real-space representation of the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (MA) of metallic ferromagnets is formulated using the full-orbital tight-binding model. By adopting a second-order perturbation for the spin-orbit interaction, numerical calculations of the uniaxial MA are performed for the L10 FePt and...

Zusammenfassung: | A real-space representation of the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (MA) of metallic ferromagnets is formulated using the full-orbital tight-binding model. By adopting a second-order perturbation for the spin-orbit interaction, numerical calculations of the uniaxial MA are performed for the L10 FePt and Y2Fe14B compounds to evaluate the validity and applicability of the present method. |
