Ferromagnetism in nitrogen-doped graphene

Abstract: Inducing a robust long-range magnetic order in diamagnetic graphene remains a challenge. While nitrogen-doped graphene is reported to be a promising candidate, the corresponding exchange mechanism endures unclear and is essential to tune further and manipulate magnetism. Within the first-principles calculations, we systematically investigate the local moment formation and the concurrent interaction between various defect complexes. The importance of adatom diffusion on the differential defect abundance is disc… Show more

“…Density functional calculations suggest that, under certain configuration and concentration, nitrogen can induce magnetism in graphene [141,142]. Only recently mass magnetic susceptibility measurements have demonstrated the ferromagnetism induced by graphitic nitrogen dopant in graphene [143].…”

“…For example, doped‐nitrogen atoms has a significant influence on the magnetism of graphene. The presence of pyrrolic N and defects induced local magnetic moments by indirect magnetic coupling, [27] while the graphitic nitrogen induced delocalized magnetic moment by offering transferable π electrons [28] . Both local and delocalized magnetic moments result in the ferromagnetic response of nitrogen‐doped graphene.…”

“…The defects can be either voids or impurities splitting the spin-up and spin-down states at the Fermi level ( ) and inducing a magnetic moment 11 14 . One method used to create void defects in graphene is by doping N atoms where the voids are surrounded by N atoms, then N-doped graphene becomes magnetic 15 , 16 . Although, high doping, void, and passivation concentrations lead to phase instability limiting amounts of spin density in graphene 17 19 .…”
