    Versatile Approach to the Spin Dynamics in Correlated Electron Systems
    (American Physical Society (APS), 2016) ; ; ;
    Time-dependent spin phenomena in condensed matter are most often either described in the weakly correlated limit of metallic Stoner/Slater-like magnetism via band theory or in the strongly correlated limit of Heisenberg-like interacting spins in an insulator. However many experimental studies, e.g. of (de)magnetization processes, focus on itinerant local-moment materials such as transition metals and various of their compounds. We here present a general theoretical framework that is capable of addressing correlated spin dynamics, also in the presence of a vanishing charge gap. A real-space implementation of the time-dependent rotational-invariant slave boson methodology allows to treat non-equilibrium spins numerically fast and efficiently beyond linear response as well as beyond the band-theoretical or Heisenberg limit.

    Exchange interactions and frustrated magnetism in single-side hydrogenated and fluorinated graphene
    (American Physical Society (APS), 2013-08-22) ; ; ;
    Magnetism in single-side hydrogenated (C₂H) and fluorinated (C₂F) graphene is analyzed in terms of the Heisenberg model with parameters determined from first principles. We predict a frustrated ground state for both systems, which means the instability of collinear spin structures and sheds light on the absence of a conventional magnetic ordering in defective graphene demonstrated in recent experiments. Moreover, our findings suggest a highly correlated magnetic behavior at low temperatures offering the possibility of a spin-liquid state.
