Abstract
We propose a first-principles calculation method for the Gilbert damping constants α at finite temperature. α is described by the torque correlation model in which the electronic structure is computed by the tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method. We include the finite-temperature effect as the transverse spin fluctuation in the disordered local moment picture within the coherent potential approximation. Applying the present method to bcc-Fe and L10-FePt, we demonstrate this temperature-dependent α. By comparing our calculated results with experimental results, we find the calculated values are less than half of the experimental values, reflecting the characteristics of the torque correlation model.
