RUI: Hybridization-Induced Magnetism in Correlated ElectronSystems

研究了三个系列相关的f电子系统所表现出的异常磁性行为：单硫系铈CeX (X = S, Se, Te)；铀单核苷酸UX (X = N， P, As, Sb, Bi)；还有单硫系铀。综合第一性原理电子结构计算和轨道驱动磁有序的现象学模型将被用于研究适度离域f电子与带电子杂化对这类系统的不同磁性行为的影响。

Research will be conducted on the unusual magnetic behavior exhibited by three series of correlated f-electron systems: the cerium monochalcogenides CeX (X = S, Se, Te); the uranium monopnictides UX (X = N, P, As, Sb, Bi); and, the uranium monochalcogenides. A synthesis of first-principles electronic structure calculations and a phenomenological model of orbitally- driven magnetic ordering will be employed to investigate the effect of hybridization of moderately delocalized f-electrons with band electrons on the diverse magnetic behavior of this class of systems.
