Smolyanyuk, A., Smejkal, L., & Mazin, I. I. (2024, April 5). AMCHECK: a tool to check whether a compensated collinear magnetic material is antiferro- or altermagnetic [Poster Presentation]. The 27. WIEN2k workshop, Italy. https://doi.org/10.34726/7379
Up to now only a limited amount of altermagnetic materials were reported and a tool to predict if a given material is an altermagnet or not would be of great use for seeking new altermagnetic candidates. Utilizing the fact that the magnetic moment compensation in these systems is driven by symmetry, we developed a program/library that allows one to check if the given material is an altermagnet by using information about its crystal structure and magnetic pattern.
