Abstract
The self-consistent ab initio calculations, based on density functional theory (DFT) approach and using a full-potential linear augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method, are performed to investigate both electronic and magnetic properties of the MnHg compound. Polarized spin and spin–orbit coupling are included in calculations within the framework of the antiferromagnetic state between two adjacent Mn atoms. Magnetic moment considered to lie along (001) axis is computed. The antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic energies of MnHg systems are obtained. Obtained data from ab initio calculations are used as input for the high-temperature series expansion (HTSE) calculations to compute other magnetic parameters. The exchange interactions between the magnetic atoms Mn–Mn in MnHg are given using the mean field theory. The HTSEs of the magnetic susceptibility of the magnetic moments in MnHg (mMn) through the Ising model are given up to tenth order series in (x=J(Mn–Mn) / kBT). The Neel temperature (TN (K)) is obtained by HTSEs applied to the magnetic susceptibility series combined with the Pade approximant method. The critical exponent (γ) associated with the magnetic susceptibility is deduced as well.
