✦ Synopsis


The magnetic properties of dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are calculated by using the local density approximation þUðLDA þ UÞ method. In the LDA þ U, occupied d-states in (Ga, Mn)As are predicted at lower energy than in the LDA and p-d exchange interaction explains calculated concentration dependence of Curie temperature very well. In (Ga, Mn)N, unoccupied d states are predicted at higher energy by LDA þ U, resulting in higher Curie temperatures than in LDA at high concentrations due to the suppression of the anti-ferromagnetic super-exchange interaction.

## Abstract We present a theory to model carrier mediated ferromagnetism in concentrated or diluted local moment systems. The electronic subsystem of the Kondo lattice model (KLM) is described by a combined equation of motion (EOM)/coherent potential approximation (CPA) method. Doing this we can ca
