Task
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in a freestanding Fe monolayer. This example is carried out in total analogy to Spin-orbit coupling in a Ni monolayer.
Input
POSCAR
fcc Fe 100 surface 3.45 .50000 .50000 .00000 -.50000 .50000 .00000 .00000 .00000 5.00000 1 Cartesian .00000 .00000 .00000
INCAR
SYSTEM = Fe (100) monolayer ISTART = 0 ENCUT = 270.00 LNONCOLLINEAR = .TRUE. MAGMOM = 0.0 0.0 3.0 VOSKOWN = 1 LSORBIT = .TRUE. LMAXMIX = 4
- For the second calculation, switch to in-plane magnetiztion by setting MAGMOM= 3.0 0.0 0.0.
KPOINTS
k-points 0 Monkhorst-Pack 9 9 1 0 0 0
Calculation
- From the energy differences of the calculations using in plane and out of plane magnetization we see that the easy axis lies (in contrast to Ni) out of plane:
