Ab-initio study of disorder effects on the electronic and magnetic structures of SrFeMoO
We have investigated the electronic structure of ordered and disordered
SrFeMoO using {\it ab-initio} band structure methods. The effect of
disorder was simulated within super-cell calculations to realize several
configurations with mis-site disorders. It is found that such disorder effects
destroy the half-metallic ferro-magnetic state of the ordered compound. It also
leads to a substantial reduction of the magnetic moments at the Fe sites in the
disordered configurations. Most interestingly, it is found for the disordered
configurations, that the magnetic coupling within the Fe sub-lattice as well as
that within the Mo sub-lattice always remain ferro-magnetic, while the two
sub-lattices couple anti-ferromagnetically, in close analogy to the magnetic
structure of the ordered compound, but in contrast to recent suggestions.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figure
Theory of Transition Temperature of Magnetic Double Perovskites
We formulate a theory of double perovskite coumpounds such as SrFeReO
and SrFeMoO which have attracted recent attention for their possible
uses as spin valves and sources of spin polarized electrons. We solve the
theory in the dynamical mean field approximation to find the magnetic
transition temperature . We find that is determined by a subtle
interplay between carrier density and the Fe-Mo/Re site energy difference, and
that the non-Fe same-sublattice hopping acts to reduce . Our results
suggest that presently existing materials do not optimize
Phase diagram and influence of defects in the double perovskites
The phase diagram of the double perovskites of the type Sr_{2-x} La_x Fe Mo
O_6 is analyzed, with and without disorder due to antisites. In addition to an
homogeneous half metallic ferrimagnetic phase in the absence of doping and
disorder, we find antiferromagnetic phases at large dopings, and other
ferrimagnetic phases with lower saturation magnetization, in the presence of
disorder.Comment: 4 pages, 3 postscript figures, some errata correcte
Intelligent video event analysis and understanding
In this paper, we present a motion segmentation approach based on the subspace segmentation technique, the generalized PCA. By incorporating the cues from the neighborhood of intensity edges of images, motion segmentation is solved under an algebra framework. Our main contribution is to propose a post-processing procedure, which can detect the boundaries of motion layers and further determine the layer ordering. Test results on real imagery have confirmed the validity of our method

Electronic structure of half-metallic double perovskites
We present the self-interaction corrected local spin density (SIC-LSD)
electronic structure and total energy calculations, leading also to valencies
of the ground state configurations, for the half-metallic double perovskites
such as SrFeMoO, BaFeMoO, CaFeMoO, and
CaFeReO. We conclude that the Fe and Mo (or Re) spin magnetic
moments are anti-parallel aligned, and the magnitude of the hybridization
induced moment on Mo does not vary much between the different compounds. The
hybridization spin magnetic moment on Re is of the order of -1.1 ,
while that on Mo is about -0.4 , independently of the alkaline earth
element. Also the electronic structure of all the compounds studied is very
similar, with a well defined gap in the majority spin component and metallic
density of states for the minority spin component, with highly hybridized Fe,
Mo (or Re), and oxygen bands.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
