Abstract
We provide a systematic analysis of finite-temperature magnetic properties of random alloys ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{x}{\mathrm{Ni}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$ with the face-centered-cubic structure over a broad concentration range $x$. By means of the spin-polarized relativistic Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method we calculate the electronic structure of disordered iron-nickel alloys and discuss how a composition change affects magnetic moments of Fe and Ni and the density of states. We investigate how the Curie temperature depends on Fe concentration using conventional approaches, such as mean-field approximation or Monte Carlo simulations, and dynamic spin-fluctuation theory. Being devised to account for spin fluctuations explicitly, the latter method shows the best fit to experimental results.
