Graduate Magnetic exchange interaction by first principle (Blume-Capel model)

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the exchange interaction and anisotropic constant of the Blume-Capel model using first principles for bulk materials. A participant suggests using the four states method, referencing a specific publication for further details. The inquiry highlights the intersection of statistical mechanics and first principles calculations in material science. The collaboration aims to bridge classical spin models with advanced computational techniques. This approach could enhance understanding of magnetic interactions in materials.

Hi guys.

I work with statistichal mechanics, applying classical spin models, as Ising model. I'm trying a collaboration with a colleague that works with first principle calculations. Does anyone know how to calculate the exchange interaction and anisotropic constant (of the Blume-Capel model), of bulk materials, by first principle??

Thanks a lot !

Hi.

You can try 4 states method, details in 10.1103/PhysRevB.84.224429. I hope that will be helpful.
