2. First Principle Studies of Functional Materials : Spintronics, Hydrogen Storage and Cutting Tools
Abstract : The properties of functional materials have been studied with density functional theory. The first type of materials that have been investigated is the so called diluted magnetic semiconductors. It is a new class of materials that could offer enhanced functionality by making use of spin in addition to the charge of the electron. READ MORE
