Main Computable Basic Physical Properties and Analysis

Background:

Skyrmion magnetic phase in two-dimensional layered materials (Van der Waals magnetic materials)

  • The singular magnetic ordered state where spin magnetic moments are oriented in a swirling pattern, known as the "skyrmion magnetic phase," is expected to be applied in spintronics.

  • Until now, skyrmion magnetic phases have only been reported in materials without centrosymmetry. However, for the first time, simulations were conducted to investigate the potential emergence of skyrmion phases in centrosymmetric two-dimensional layered materials using a combination of first-principles calculations and Monte Carlo simulations with the software "Quloud-Mag."

Simulation Result:

  • The magnetic susceptibility phase diagram of 2D layered materials MX3 (M=V, Cr, Mn; X=Cl, Br, I) was reproduced through simulations (upper left figure).

  • It was discovered that 2D layered materials MX3, with locally broken centrosymmetry, have nonzero values of the Jarosinski-Moriya interaction, a factor contributing to the emergence of the skyrmion phase.

  • Magnetic order simulations confirmed the actual emergence of the skyrmion phase (upper right and lower figures).

Analysis Example

Background:

The challenges related to carrier mobility at the SiC/SiO2 interface in SiC-MOS devices.

  • SiC is attracting attention as a power semiconductor material that exhibits excellent characteristics even under harsh conditions such as high temperature and high voltage. However, when forming the SiC/SiO2 interface to create devices, it is known that the channel conductivity significantly decreases compared to the characteristics expected from pure SiC. This presents a major challenge in improving performance.

  • To obtain guidance for overcoming this challenge, analysis using simulations conducted with the first-principles calculation engine "RSDFT," available on Quloud, will be performed.

Simulation Result:

  • A model of the SiC/SiO2 interface atomic structure was created, and first-principles calculations were performed under the condition of applying an electric field to determine the spatial distribution of wave functions near the bottom of the conduction band (upper figure).

  • The analysis revealed that the wave function is localized much more strongly in a narrow region near the interface than expected from the effective mass approximation, which is a common analysis method in semiconductor physics.

  • It is believed that when the wave function is localized near the interface, it is significantly influenced by structural irregularities at the atomic level of the interface, leading to increased scattering and consequently a decrease in mobility.

  • A model was created based on the "virtual crystal approximation" by doping nitrogen atoms into the SiC layer in the region up to about 4nm from the interface of the SiC/SiO2, and first-principles calculations were performed (lower figure).

  • The analysis revealed that, compared to before doping, the carrier density increases when an electric field is applied, and furthermore, the carrier distribution peaks slightly away from the interface.
