Abstract

Abstract In this work, we report results in calculation of the magnetic anisotropy of thin films by means of the real-space tight-binding linearized muffin-tin orbitals method (RS-TB-LMTO).A self-consistent spin-polarized version including spin-orbit coupling and with arbitrary spin-quantization axis is used. Within this framework, and as an example, the results of the magnetic anisotropy properties of Ni films on a Cu(001) substrate are reported.
