论文摘要

在本文中,通过第一原则计算,系统地研究了锌 - 搅拌GA1-XVXSB化合物的结构,电子和磁性,从稀释掺杂情况到极端掺杂限制。 V原子更喜欢替代GA原子,而在富含GA的生长条件下,SB富含SB的地层能量低。同时,SBGA抗铁矿缺陷可以有效地降低替代过程的能量障碍,从0.85 eV降低到0.53 eV。 V原子在GASB晶格中的扩散是通过元稳定的间隙位点,能屏障为0.6 eV。在低V浓度X = 0.0625处,V原子更喜欢均匀分布和它们之间的抗铁磁耦合。但是,由于X = 0.5的X = 0.5,V原子之间的磁耦合变化为铁磁,这是由于相邻V原子的EG和T2G状态之间的superexchange相互作用增强。在X = 1.00的极限限制下,我们发现锌 - 蓝色VSB及其类似物VAS和VP是固有的Ferromagneitc半导体,在Curie温度下,光吸收的变化很大。这些结果表明,GA1-XVXSB化合物可以提供设计新的电子,自旋和光电设备的平台。

In this paper, the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Zinc-blende Ga1-xVxSb compounds, with x from dilute doping situation to extreme doping limiting, were systematically investigated by first-principles calculations. V atoms prefer to substitute the Ga atoms and the formation energy is lower in Sb-rich than Ga-rich growth condition. Meantime, the SbGa antisite defects can effectively decrease the energy barrier of substitution process, from 0.85 eV to 0.53 eV. The diffusion of V atom in GaSb lattice is through meta-stable interstitial sites with an energy barrier of 0.6 eV. At a low V concentration x = 0.0625, V atoms prefer a homogeneous distribution and an antiferromagnetic coupling among them. However, starting from x = 0.5, the magnetic coupling among V atoms changes to be ferromagnetic, due to enhanced superexchange interaction between eg and t2g states of neighbouring V atoms. At the extreme limiting of x = 1.00, we found that Zinc-blende VSb as well as its analogs VAs and VP are intrinsic ferromagneitc semiconductors, with a large change of light absorption at the curie temperature. These results indicate that Ga1-xVxSb compounds can provide a platform to design the new electronic, spintronic and optoelectronic devices.
