摘要: Using density-functional calculations within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA)+U framework, we investigate the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of the ground states of SrFeOn (n=2 and 2.5). The magnetism calculations show that the ground states of both SrFeO2 and SrFeO_2.5 have G type antiferromagnetic ordering, with indirect band gaps of 0.89 and 0.79~eV, respectively. The electronic structure calculations demonstrate that Fe cations are in the high-spin state of (d_z2)2(d_xz,d_yz)2(d_xy)1(d_x2-y2)1(S=2), unlike the previous prediction of (d_xz,d_yz)3(d_xy)1(d_z2)1(d_x2-y2)1(S=2) for SrFeO2, and in the high-spin state of (d_xy,d_xz,d_yz,d_x2-y2,d_z2)^5(S=5/2) for SrFeO_2.5.

Abstract: Using density-functional calculations within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA)+U framework, we investigate the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of the ground states of SrFeOn (= 2 and 2.5). The magnetism calculations show that the ground states of both SrFeO2 and SrFeO2.5 have G type antiferromagnetic ordering, with indirect band gaps of 0.89 and 0.79 eV, respectively. The electronic structure calculations demonstrate that Fe cations are in the high-spin state of $\left( d _{z^{2}}\right)^{2}\left( d _{x z}, d _{y z}\right)^{2}\left( d _{x y}\right)^{1}\left( d _{x^{2}-y^{2}}\right)^{1}(S=2)$, unlike the previous prediction of $\left( d _{x z}, d _{y z}\right)^{3}\left( d _{x y}\right)^{1}\left( d _{z^{2}}\right)^{1}\left( d _{x^{2}-y^{2}}\right)^{1}(S=2)$ for SrFeO2, and in the high-spin state of $\left( d _{x y}, d _{x z}, d _{y z}, d _{x^{2}-y^{2}}, d _{z^{2}}\right)^{5}(S=5 / 2)$ for SrFeO2.5.
