First-principles calculations of GaN:Gd nanowires: Carbon-dopants-induced room-temperature ferromagnetism
First-principle calculations of the electronic structure and magnetic interaction of C-Gd co-doped GaN nanowires have been performed. The room-temperature ferromagnetism in GaN:Gd nanowires is observed after the substitution of N atoms by C atoms. A p-d coupling is considered as the reason of the ob...
