Our studies have shown that new magnetic nanostructures can be stabilized by the long-range interactions between adatoms mediated by surface-state electrons[1,2]. Remarkable expereminets of the group of W.-D. Schneider have demonstrated that cerium adatoms, deposited on Ag(111), can self-assemble into large ordered superlattice via the long-range interaction[3]. Here, we present the Monte Carlo(MC) simulations of the coverage and temperature dependent self-organization of the magnetic adatoms on metal surfaces. The ab initio KKR Green’s function method is used to find parameters of interactions for the MC simulations. We concentrate on Ce adatoms on Ag(111) and Co adatoms on Cu(111).
