Magnetic Properties of disordered CoCu alloys:A first principles approach

TL;DR

This study uses first principles calculations to analyze the electronic structure and magnetic properties of disordered CoCu alloys across different compositions, revealing how their magnetic behavior varies.

Contribution

It provides a comprehensive first-principles analysis of the electronic and magnetic properties of disordered CoCu alloys, which was not previously detailed.

Findings

Density of states varies with composition

Magnetic moments depend on alloy concentration

Curie temperature shows specific trends across the alloy spectrum

Abstract

Crystalline Co$_{x}$Cu$_{1-x}$ alloys show interesting magnetic behavior over the entire concentration regime. We here present a fully self- consistent first principles electronic structure studies of the electronic structure and magnetic properties of the system.We present results for the variation of density of states, magnetic moment,spin susceptibility and Curie temperature.
