- Description
- Magnetism of real materials requires multiple parameters for a quantitative microscopic description. While Heisenberg exchange J is often sufficient for predicting the type of magnetic ground state, directions of the magnetic moments relative to the crystal axes are determined by smaller anisotropy terms. In this talk, I will show how both isotropic and anisotropic exchanges can be obtained from DFT-based band-structure calculations, and present applications to several quantum magnets, including frustrated-square-lattice compounds PbVO3 and Li2VOSiO4 as well as francisite-type minerals with a strongly frustrated kagome-like interaction network. .
