The Slater–Pauling Curve: First Principles Calculations Of The Moments Of Fe1 − C Ni C And V1 − C Fe C, Duane Johnson, F. Pinski, J. Staunton

Duane D. Johnson

We have performed calculations of the electronic structure of the random substitutional alloys Fe1−c Ni c and V1−c Fe c using the spin‐polarized, self‐consistent Korringa–Kohn–Rostoker coherent‐potential approximation (KKR‐CPA) method. This is a first principles method based on spin density functionaltheory and a local spin density approximation for the exchange and correlation functional. For fcc Fe1−c Ni c , a range of volumes were considered for 0.25
