Abstract

In this study, we have investigated the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of the Rb2NaVF6 compound. We have performed our calculations by the use of first-principle methods based on spin-polarized density functional theory, where the electronic exchange-correlation potential is treated by the generalized gradient approximation GGA- PBEsol coupled with the improved TB-mBJ approach. The calculated structural parameters of Rb2NaVF6 are in good agreement with the available experimental data. Rb2NaVF6 exhibits a half-metallic ferromagnetic feature with a spin polarization of 100 % at the Fermi level and a direct large half-metallic gap of 3.582 eV. The total magnetic moments are 2 μB. This material is half-metallic ferromagnets, and it can be potential candidates for spintronics applications at a higher temperature.
