Investigation of spin wave dispersions in Co thin films on W(110) from first-principles — •Flaviano José Dos Santos, Manuel Dos Santos Dias, and Samir Lounis — Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich & JARA, D-52428 Jülich, Germany

We computed spin wave dispersions of a few monolayers of Co deposited on the W(110) surface in the adiabatic approximation. The magnetic exchange interactions are obtained via first-principles electronic structure calculations using the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green function method. We analyze the strength and oscillatory behavior of the intra-layer and inter-layer magnetic interactions and investigate the resulting dispersion of spin waves as a function of the thickness of Co films. We compare our results to recent measurements [1] based on electron energy loss spectroscopy. In particular, we demonstrate the strong impact of hybridization of the electronic states at the interface of Co and W on the magnetic exchange interactions and on the spin-waves dispersion curve. The distance dependence of the magnetic interactions is found to be strongly anisotropic, which we connect to the presence of quantum well states in the Co films.
