摘要：
Through density functional full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave calculations, we found that it is possible to materialize a ferromagnetic Mn monolayer on nonmagnetic Nb(001). It was obtained that the surface Nb atom has a large induced magnetic moment of -0.56 mu(B) and the Nb has an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction with the Mn adlayer. We attribute this antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between Mn and Nb atoms to the realization of a ferromagnetic ground state in a Mn monolayer on the Nb(001) surface. We also present the calculated results of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism and magnetic anisotropy. It was observed that Mn/Nb(001) has weak perpendicular magnetocrystalline anisotropy, but the easy axis is in plane due to the shape anisotropy.
