(color online) Enthalpy differences per Mn between the FM and AFM states for (Ba_0.75K_0.25)(Zn_0.944Mn_0.056)₂P₂ as a function of Mn–Mn distances at (a) 0 GPa, (b) 15 GPa, and (c) 30 GPa, respectively. The data points denote the different Mn–Mn pairs in the supercell. The legend ‘one-layer’ means that the Mn–Mn pairs are in the same Zn layer while the ‘two-layer’ are in different Zn layers. The solid circles correspond to the 0–1, 0–2, 0–3, 0–4, and 0–6 configurations with increasing Mn–Mn distances while the solid squares to the 0–0′, 0–1′, 0-2′, 0–3′, 0–4′, and 0–6′ ones.
