Understanding complex multiple sublattice magnetism in double double perovskites.

ABSTRACT: Understanding magnetism in multiple magnetic sublattice system, driven by the interplay of varied nature of magnetic exchanges, is on one hand challenging and on other hand intriguing. Motivated by the recent synthesis of AA[Formula: see text]BB[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text] double double perovskites with multiple magnetic ions both at A- and B-sites, we investigate the mechanism of magnetic behavior in these interesting class of compounds. We find that the magnetism in such multiple sublattice compounds is governed by the interplay and delicate balance between two distinct mechanisms, (a) kinetic energy-driven multiple sublattice double exchange mechanism and (b) the conventional super-exchange mechanism. The derived spin Hamiltonian based on first-principles calculations is solv
