Magnetic properties
« on: July 29, 2013, 16:14 »
Respected sir,
I am wanting to calculate the Magnetic properties of Mn-doped GaN nanotube, but problem is how to introduce the spin in doped atoms


Highest Regards

This is done in a similar way as for any other system.
Define the geometry of the doped system, select a spin polarized functional, and set the initial spin,
check the tutorials:

With ATK-13.8 you can also do the non-collinear calculations, later this month we will release a beta version with some tutorials.
