- Description
- First-principles electronic structure calculations were performed for a <math>FeA\ell_{42}\,\!</math> embedded cluster, representing an Fe impurity in <math>A\ell\,\!</math> . At the equilibrium positions of the <math>A\ell\,\!</math> first neighbors around Fe, obtained by total energy minimization, it was found that the impurity is non-magnetic, This result is consistent with experimental observations and renders unnecessary a microscopic description based on spin fluctuations.
