RKKY coupling in graphene

Abstract: We study the carrier-mediated exchange interaction, the so-called RKKY coupling, between two magnetic moments in graphene using exact diagonalization on the honeycomb lattice. By using the tight-binding nearest neighbor band structure of graphene we avoid the use of a momentum cut-off which plagues results in the Dirac continuum model formulation. We extract both the short and long impurity-impurity distance behavior and show several corrections to earlier long distance results. In the bulk the RKKY coupling i… Show more

“…Furthermore figure 4 shows that at large impurity distances J A 1 B 1 (R ij ) falls off as 1/R 4 approximately. This behavior is unlike the long-distances 1/R 3 decay of the RKKY interaction in SLG [18,20,21,19,24] and also unlike the long-distances 1/R 2 decay of the RKKY interaction in 2DEG [17]. Similar result for power law decay of…”

“…Therefore the intralayer RKKY interactions between magnetic impurities located on same sublattice in BLG are always ferromagnetic. This is similar to the ferromagnetic coupling between magnetic moments located on same sublattice in SLG [18,20,21,19]. Also the intralayer RKKY interactions…”
