s The geometrical structures of Cd0.75TM0.25Se （TM = Ti, V, Cr and Mn） are optimized, and then their electric and magnetic properties are investigated by performing first-principles calculations within the generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation function based on density functional theory. Cd0.75TM0.25Se （TM =Ti and V） are found to have high spin-polarization near 100% at the Fermi level. Cd0.75TM0.25Se （TM = Cr and Mn） are half-metallic ferromagnets whose spin-polarization at the Fermi level is absolutely ＋100%. The supercell magnetic moments of Cd0.75Cr0.25Se and Cdo.75Mno.25Se are 4.00 and 5.00 μB, which arise mainly from Cr-ions and Mnions, respectively. The half-metallicity of Cdo.75Cro.25Se is more stable than that of Cd0.75Mn0.25Se. The electronic structures of Cr-ions and Mn-ions are Cr eg2↑t22g↑ and Mn e2 3 ↑t23g↑, respectively.
The 2×2× 1 rocksalt C-doped MgS supercells are optimized and their magnetic and electric properties, including the half-metallicity, the conductivity and the supercell magnetic moments, are calculated or analysed by the first- principles researches based on the density functional theory. Results show that the concentration of C-dopants may cause important influence on the magnetic and the electric properties of rocksalt MgS. C dopants are inclined to have a scattering distribution. MGC0.0625S0.9375^, aMgC0.1250S0.8750 and MgC0.1875S0.8125 have evident half-metallicity. They have wide spin energy gaps, thus high Curie temperature possibly. Their supercell magnetic moments are near to integral numbers 2.0, 4.0 and 6.0μB. The main reason for spin polarization and half-metallicity of C-doped MgS is that there are sp hybridized orbitals in ligand compound ML6 caused by covalent interaction between C-ions and Mg-ions.
The geometrical structures of wurtzite CrX （X=As, Sb, O, Se, and Te） were optimized, then their electric and magnetic properties were investigated by the first-principle calculations within the generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation functional based on the density functional theory. These Cr-phosphides and Cr-sulphides were predicted to be half-metallic ferromagnets whose spin-polarization at the Fermi level is absolutely 100%. The molecular magnetic moments of Cr-phosphides and Cr-sulphides are 3.00 and 4.00 μB, which arise mainly from Cr-ions, respectively. There is ferromagnetic coupling in both Cr- phosphides and Cr-sulphides. The Curie temperatures of Cr-sulphides and Cr-phosphides are high. The electronic structures of Cr-ions are a1g^2↑↓t1u^4↑↓t1u^1↑↓eg^2↑↓in Cr-phosphides and a1g^2↑↓t1u^4↑↓t1u^1↑t2g^3↑in Cr-sulphides, respectively.
