Abstract
The K2NiF4-type structure La4CoNiO8 (LCNO), La4FeCoO8 (LFCO), and La4FeNiO8 (LFNO) are studied by using the first-principle electronic structure calculations. Our results indicate that the ground state of LCNO is a ferrimagnetism (FiM) with a large energy gap about 1.9 eV, LFCO and LFNO are antiferromagnetism with energy gaps about 1.3 and 1.4 eV, respectively. Their orthorhombic distortions, out-of-plane elongation, and tilting of octahedron are discussed. It is indicated that LFCO and LFNO have stronger crystal distortion than LCNO. Our calculations indicate that the in-plane magnetic exchange interaction of LCNO is much stronger than LFCO and LFNO, thus LCNO should have much higher magnetic ordering temperature than LFCO and LFNO.
