Ab Initio Calculations of Magnetic Properties of Wurtzite Al0.9375TM0.0625N (TM = V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni)

The electronic structure of transition metal (TM) doped aluminium nitride was presented.The calculations were made within density functional theory and supercell approximation.It was found that the ferromagnetic ground states were possible without additional dopants in V-, Cr-, Mn-doped AlN.
