Abstract

Magnetic anisotropy phenomena in bimetallic antiferromagnets ${\text{Mn}}_{2}\text{Au}$ and MnIr are studied by first-principles density-functional theory calculations. We find strong and lattice-parameter-dependent magnetic anisotropies of the ground-state energy, chemical potential, and density of...
