Ab initio study of ferromagnetic Co-chains on the (5x1) Iridium(001) surface — •Bertrand Dupe1, Yuriy Mokrousov2, and Stefan Heinze11Institut für Theoretische Physik und Astrophysik, CAU Kiel, Germany — 2Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation Forchungszentrum Jülich,Jülich, Germany

Nanostructures of 3d transition metals on 4d or 5d substrates have been shown to exhibit complex spin structures [1-4]. A recent study demonstrated the intriguing magnetism of Fe biatomic chains on the (5x1) reconstructed Ir(001) surface due to the interplay of magnetocrystalline anisotropy, Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and exchange interaction [4]. Here, we use first-principles calculations based on density functional theory to explore Co biatomic chains on the (5x1) Ir(001) surface. Due to the key role of 3d-5d hybridization for the magnetic properties of such systems [5], we study Co chains in different structural arrangements and the impact of structural relaxations. We report the magnetic properties of the Co chains such as the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy and the spatial distribution of spin-polarization. We compare our results with recent spin-polarized STM experiments [6].
