We show, using ab initio density functional theory calculations, that Mn dimers adsorbed on graphene nanoribbons (Mn2/GNRs) present a magnetic bistability, as does the isolated Mn dimer. Our total energy results indicate that Mn dimers lying along the edge sites of zigzag GNRs represent the most likely configuration.…

Early work on the iron-arsenide compounds supported the view, that a reduced dimensionality might be a necessary prerequisite for high-T c superconductivity. Later, however, it was found that the zero-temperature upper critical magnetic field, H c2(0), for the 122 iron pnictides is in fact rather isotropic. Here, we r…
