Abstract:Magnetic clusters have attracted great attention and interest due to their novel electronic properties, and they have potential applications in nanoscale information storage devices and spintronics. The interaction between magnetic clusters and substrates is still one of the challenging research focuses. Here, by using the density functional theory (DFT), we study the structural stability and magnetic properties of iridium clusters (Irn, n = 3–5) adsorbed on two-dimensional (2D) substrates, such as graphene an… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
