Unoccupied surface and interface states in thin film of Pd deposited on Fe/Ir(111) surface — •Mohammed Bouhassoune, Imara Lima Fernandes, Stefan Blügel, and Samir Lounis — Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich and JARA, D-52425 Jülich, Germany

Pd layer deposited on Fe/Ir(111) substrate has been recently subject to intensive investigations since it hosts small swirling spin-textures named skyrmions that have potential interest in spintronic devices as magnetic bits for information technology. To manipulate and stabilize such non-collinear magetic objects it is of important demand to conduct a quantitaive study of their electronic structure. Here we aim to investigate the unoccupied states in Pd thin layers deposited on Fe/Ir(111) substrate using density functional theory. These unoccupied states are behind the large spin-mixing magnetoresisatnce (XMR) signature measured using non spin-polarized scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) [1,2]. By analysing the electronic band structure we demonstrate the emergence of surface and interface states after deposition of Pd monolayers, which are very sensitive to the large spin-orbit coupling of Ir surface giving rise to the XMR signal.
