摘要
The electronic structures and magnetic properties of Fe1-xZnxCr2S4 (x = 0.0, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0) have been studied within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and GGA + U schemes. The calculated results reveal that with increasing Zn content the cell volume shrinks slightly; the system changes from ferrimagnetism to antiferromagnetism. The materials were found to be semiconductor in the compositional range of 0 <= x <= 0.5 and insulator in 0.75 <= x <= 1.0. Our calculations reveal that the semiconducting ground state for FeCr2S4 is both the Jahn-Teller effect and the Coulomb correlation effect. The calculated results for the magnetic phase transition are in a good agreement with experiments. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
