Half metallic ferromagnetism and optoelectronic characteristics of V doped BaTiO3compound: a DFT study

Abstract

The effect of vanadium (V) doping with various concentrations (x= 12.50%, 25%, 50%, 75%) on the physical properties ofBaTiO3perovskite is examined using the spin polarized theory.The electronic band structure (BS) for both states reveal that all Ba0.875V0.125TiO3, Ba0.75V0.25TiO3,Ba0.5V0.5TiO3 and Ba0.25V0.75TiO3 compounds are half-metallic ferromagnetic (HMF) materials. The results showed that V play a significant role in the HMF behavior ofBa1-xVxTiO3compound. In addition, the magnetic characteristics confirm the integer values of magnetic moment of all mentioned compounds. In optical properties, reflectivity R (ω), optical absorption α (ω), dielectric function ɛ (ω), extinction coefficient k (ω), and refractive index n (ω) are also calculated. The complete set of optical parameters suggests the use of mentioned material in the visible-ultra violet optoelectronics devices. Based on the half metallic (HM) results of V doped BaTiO3 is capable for spintronics applications.

Exploring multiferroicity, half-metallic phase, and curie temperature in X = B/C/N/F-Doped KNbO3: a DFT aspect

“…Doping is one of the most powerful tools for improving the physical properties of FE PO. As Sohail et al, theoretically explained the 3d transition metal (TM) doping effect on the BTO system, where TM is substituted at A-site and found that V-doped motif exhibits HM FM behavior [35]. A MF motif was synthesized experimentally at room temperature by Palker et al, [36] by doping Fe at the Ti site in PTO structure.…”

Electronic, Structural, Optical, and Magnetic Characteristics A2MgS4 of (A=Dy, Er) Spinel Sulfides: A Density Functional Theory Study

“…Spintronic investigations were first limited to metals, but recently, several semiconducting materials have been recognized as FM materials, making them important for applications in practical devices. [ 1,2 ] A material's suitability for spintronic applications depends on its room‐temperature FM nature. [ 3 ] The ionic distribution in spinel chalcogenides is believed to be responsible for the strong exchange splitting between cation and anion states.…”
