Abstract

The electronic structure and magnetic properties of double perovskite ErCu3V4O12 have been investigated in the framework of the projector augmented-wave method. It has been shown that the electron correlations play an important role: the calculations in the one-electron approximation predict that the ground state of ErCu3V4O12 is a magnetic metallic state, while with the inclusion of electron-electron correlations, it is a ferrimagnetic semimetallic state. It has been found that the magnetic Cu-Cu and V-V couplings are ferromagnetic and that the Cu-V magnetic coupling is antiferromagnetic.
