Abstract:
Structure and magnetic properties of Fe$_{1-x}$Ga$_x$ alloys have been investigated by using density functional theory calculations implemented in the SPR-KKR software package. The equilibrium lattice parameters for A2, DO$_3$, L1$_2$ phases were found. Magneto-crystalline anisotropy energy were estimated for DO$_3$ and L1$_2$ phases of Fe$_{1-x}$Ga$_x$ ($x$ = 0.0–0.30) alloys.
Keywords:magnetostriction, Fe-Ga, energy of magneto-crystalline anisotropy, ab initio calculation.
