Spin excitations in nanostructures on a Cu(111) surface: Access to the electron self-energy from first-principles — •Benedikt Schweflinghaus, Manuel dos Santos Dias, and Samir Lounis — Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich and JARA, 52425 Jülich, Germany

Magnetic excitation spectra of nanostructures are nowadays accessible by low-temperature inelastic scanning tunneling spectroscopy, see e.g. [1]. We developed a first-principles description of such spectra by combining time-dependent density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory, implemented in a code based on the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green function method [2,3]. The coupling of the electrons to the spin-excitation within the adsorbate is given in terms of the electron self-energy. We analyze this key quantity for a number of clusters with different geometries placed on a Cu(111) substrate. We spin-characterize their excitation spectra and discuss how they change with the number of involved atoms, their kind, and their arrangement on the surface.
