Behavior of a magnetic impurity in graphene in the presence of a vacancy

Behavior of a magnetic impurity in graphene in the presence of a vacancy

With quantum Monte Carlo methods, we investigate the consequences of placing a magnetic adatom adjacent to a vacancy in a graphene sheet. We find that instead of the adatom properties depending on the energy of the adatom orbital, as in a single impurity problem, they develop a dependence on the …
