XMCD studies and magnetic properties of ZnTe doped with Ti, Cr, Mn and Co

Abstract

Using the full potential linear augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method as implemented in the WIEN2K code in connection with the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA). We study the magnetic properties of ZnTe doped with some transition metals elements. In addition, to the X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) and X-ray Magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) calculations to compute the orbital and spin moments separately. Two principal examples will be given: The induced magnetic moments ZnTe of the light and heavy 3d elements (Ti, Cr and Mn, Co) can be determined by the XMCD sum rules analysis at the L2,3 edges. Moreover, it has been found that for the lighter 3d elements the spin-orbit splitting of the transitions 2P1/2 and 2P3/2 states reduces toward, which has a consequence that two excitations are coupled
