The Electronic and Magnetic Properties and the Topological Phase Graphene Sheet with Fe, Co, Si, and Ge Impurities

Abstract

The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of pure graphene sheet and graphene sheet with Fe, Co, Si, and Ge impurities are investigated. The calculated results are done within density functional theory in the presence of spin-orbit coupling using the generalized gradient approximation. Electron density of states, band order, electron charge distribution, magnetic moment of these sheets, and the effect of pressure on the band order of graphene sheet with Fe impurity are investigated.
