摘要
Spin polarized calculations are performed to study the structural and electronic properties of Mn doped BiFeO3 (BMFO) using simplified local spin density approximation (LSDA) functional under density functional theory (DFT). The B-site doping concentration of Mn in BMFO considered to be 16.7 % (BiMn0.167Fe0.833O3) Density of states calculations are carried out for both ferromagnetic (FM) and anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) order in BMFO. The results predict that BMFO is a half metal for both FM and AFM BMFO with magnetization of 29.0000 mu(B)/cell and 1.0000 mu(B)/cell respectively. The ground state of BMFO is found to be antiferromagnetic and demonstrates BMFO to be a potential candidate for spintronic applications.
