Is exchange parameter calculated from band energy Uele ? Date: 2017/10/19 05:34 Name: Min Yi   <minyibhu@gmail.com> Dear All, I tried to calculate exchange parameter by jx in OPENMX. The system is a tow-layer structure. Firstly, For the AFM state, I get total energy Utot(AFM) and band energy Uele(AFM). For FM state, I get Utot(FM) and Uele(FM). But I found that Uele(AFM)<Uele(FM), while Utot(AFM)>Utot(FM). It means that in terms of Utot, FM state is preferable, while in terms of Uele, AFM is preferable. It is very strange. Then I used jx in OPENMX to calculate the interface Jij, which indicates AFM state is preferable. This agrees with the results from comparing Uele. So my doubt is that: is the exchange parameter calculated from band energy Uele ? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Min

Ozaki References: t-ozaki@issp.u-tokyo.ac.jp Hi, In OpenMX the exchange coupling parameters are calculated using a magnetic force theorem which is based on the second order perturbation theory for Uele not for Utot. As for your reference, our recent study might be useful: https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.07533 Regards, TO
