Abstract

The electronic structure and ferromagnetic properties of ZnO doped and co-doped with single and double impurities Zn1−x−y A x B y O (A = Co; B = Cr) have been investigated using the ab initio calculations with the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) approximations. The magnetic moment of each atom and the total magnetic moment are computed for different co-doping concentrations. The gap energies for all the components are also discussed.
