研究目的
Investigating the effects of carbon doping and vacancy defects on the magnetism of anatase TiO2 to understand the origin and mechanism of magnetism in such systems.
研究成果
Systems with coexisting interstitial C and O vacancies in anatase TiO2 achieve half-metallic ferromagnetism with a Curie temperature above room temperature, making them suitable for spintronic applications. The magnetism originates from strong hybrid coupling electron exchange effects among Ti-3d, O-2p, and C-2p orbits.
