Spin-polarized electronic density of states in amorphous iron

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

The spin-polarized electronicd-band density of states in amorphous iron are reported using recursion method. The magnetic moment of amorphous iron is found to be almost as high as BCC iron. This lends support to the view expressed by Kemény et al. that the extrapolation of experimental results obtained on samples containing less than 2% impurities to deduce the magnetic moment of pure amorphous iron may not be justified.
