First-principles LCGO calculation of the magneto-optical properties of nickel and iron
First-principles LCGO calculation of the magneto-optical properties of nickel and iron
We report a first principles, self-consistent, all electron, linear combination of Gaussian orbitals (LCGO) calculation of a comprehensive collection of magneto-optical properties of nickel and iron based on density functional theory. Among the many magneto-optical effects, we have studied the equatorial Kerr effect for absorption in the optical as well …
