First Principles Study on Different Size of Pd-Doped CdS

Article Preview

Abstract:

The electronic structures and magnetic properties of Pd-doped CdS have been studied by FLAPW method in the GGA. We find that the Pd-doped CdS becomes 100% spin polarized at fermi level when Pd substitutes for Cd atom both in 3×3×2 and 2×2×2 CdS supercells. The supercell magnetic moment reaches to 2.0μB. At the same time, the magnetic coupling interaction makes the occupied states more localized. The magnetism, the density of states, the spin density and band structure were studied as well.
