Multiband V-J model for dilute magnetic semiconductors — •Stefan Barthel1, Gerd Czycholl1, and Georges Bouzerar2,31Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Bremen, Otto-Hahn-Allee 1, D-28359 Bremen, Germany — 2Institut Néel, 25 avenue des Martyrs, B.P. 166, 38042 Grenoble Cedex 09, France — 3School of Engineering and Science, Jacobs University Bremen, Campus Ring 1, D-28759 Bremen, Germany

A multiband empirical tight-binding model for magnetically doped group-III-V-semiconductors with zincblende structure (e.g. Ga1−xMnxAs,etc.) is applied to the calculation of effective Mn-Mn exchange couplings Jij. The pd-coupling is treated non-perturbatively and nonmagnetic scattering is included. A polynomial expansion of the spectral density allows for the study of orbital-resolved exchange couplings for very large system sizes, which can be directly mapped on a disordered Heisenberg model. Finally a comparison of our findings using realistic input parameters (bandstructure, impurity concentration, pd-coupling, impurity potential) to available ab-initio data (LDA, LDA+U) is made. Our approach seems promising to bridge the gap between model and ab-initio methods.
