Abstract

Magnetic properties of cobalt atoms in Au-Co chains on the Cu(110) surface (such as the magnetic moment, magnetic anisotropy energy, and exchange energy) have been calculated in the framework of the density functional theory. It has been found, at zero temperature, an infinitely long Au-Co chain is in the ferromagnetic state. The magnetostatic and magnetodynamic properties of finite-length Au-Co chains at a nonzero temperature have been investigated within the Heisenberg model using the kinetic Monte Carlo method. The dependences of the Curie temperature and magnetization reversal time on the chain length have been obtained, as well as the dependences of the coercivity of the chain on the temperature, chain length, and magnetization reversal rate.
