摘要：
We investigate magnetic properties of Fe thin films on Cu(111), within the density functional theory. We calculate the total energy and the magnetic moment as a function of the Fe-Cu interlayer distance d. We find the energy minimum at d = 2.16 Angstrom. In this case, the magnetic moment per atom is larger than that in the Fe bulk. We also find that interaction between Fe atoms is ferromagnetic in 2 x 2 unit cell. On the basis of numerical results, we discuss the origin of these magnetic properties.
