摘要
First-principles study on the energetic stability, electronic structure, and magnetic coupling in Mn-doped silicon with various configurations has been performed systematically. The results show that the poly-Mn atoms prefer to aggregate in the Mn-doped silicon dilute magnetic semiconductor. It is found that the tetrahedral interstitial Mn (Mn-T) atoms assemble together via an intervening substitutional Mn (Mn-Si) ion, subsequently forming the generally favored Mn-T-Mn-Si-Mn-T-type complexes. The dominant d-d exchange interactions between the Mn-Si and Mn-T make all Mn ions in the Mn-T-Mn-Si-Mn-T structures interact ferromagnetically with each other.
