Ferromagnetism in IV main group element (C) and transition metal (Mn) doped MgO: A density functional perspective

The formation of magnetic moment due to the dopants with p-orbital (d-orbital) is named d0 (d −) magnetism, where the ion without (with) partially filled d states is found to be responsible for the observed magnetic properties. To study the origin of magnetism at a fundamental electronic level in su...
