Abstract: | The electronic structure of NdFe 10 M 2(M=Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Mo, W) compounds were obtained by the linear muffin tin orbit(LMTO) method, and the micro magnetic properties were examined through the total density of state(TDOS) and the local density of state(DOS). The results suggest that there are two mechanisms which compete with each other and are responsible for variations in magnetic moments of NdFe 10 M 2 with intertitial N(or C) atoms, and the volume expansion leads to the enhancement of Fe Fe exchange interaction at 8i and 8f site, with the result that the magnetic moments at both sites increase. Meanwhile, the magnetic moments at 8j site decrease owing to the hybridization between 3d(Fe) and 2p(N or C) orbits. |
