Induced magnetic moment in graphene with a nonmagnetic impurity
We consider a two-dimensional crystalline monolayer of carbon atoms with a single non-magnetic impurity. Using the Weyl Hamiltonian to describe electronic energy spectrum near the Dirac points, we calculate the wave function and energy of impurity states, as well as the induced magnetic moment associated with polarization of the electron system. We present a phase diagram of the localized magne...
متن کاملMagnetic properties and diffusion of adatoms on a graphene sheet.
We use ab initio methods to calculate the properties of adatom defects on a graphite surface. By applying a full spin-polarized description to the system we demonstrate that these defects have a magnetic moment of about 0.5micro(B) and also calculate its role in diffusion over the surface. The magnetic nature of these intrinsic carbon defects suggests that it is important to understand their ro...
متن کاملStability, energetics, and magnetic states of cobalt adatoms on graphene.
We investigate the stability and electronic properties of single Co atoms on graphene with near-exact many-body calculations. A frozen-orbital embedding scheme was combined with auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo calculations to increase the reach in system sizes. Several energy minima are found as a function of the distance h between Co and graphene. Energetics only permit the Co atom to occu...
متن کاملOrbital symmetry fingerprints for magnetic adatoms in graphene
In this paper, we describe the formation of local resonances in graphene in the presence of magnetic adatoms containing localized orbitals of arbitrary symmetry, corresponding to any given angular momentum state. We show that quantum interference effects which are naturally inbuilt in the honeycomb lattice in combination with the specific orbital symmetry of the localized state lead to the form...
متن کاملKondo quantum criticality of magnetic adatoms in graphene.
We examine the exchange Hamiltonian for magnetic adatoms in graphene with localized inner shell states. On symmetry grounds, we predict the existence of a class of orbitals that lead to a distinct class of quantum critical points in graphene, where the Kondo temperature scales as TK∝|J-Jc|1/3 near the critical coupling Jc, and the local spin is effectively screened by a super-Ohmic bath. For th...
