Abstract

The electronic and magnetic structures of the Sn0.75 M 0.25O2 and Sn0.5 M 0.25Sb0.25O2 (M = Cr, Mn, Co, Ni) compounds with a structure that is derivative of the rutile structure are modeled using the ab initio spin-polarized tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital (TB-LMTO) method. The magnetic moments of the transition metal atoms are calculated. The data obtained are used to analyze the influence of the composition of Sn1 − x − y M x Sb y O2 phases on their electronic spectra and the magnetic and transport characteristics.
