Two magnetic impurities in graphene

ORAL

Abstract

We theoretically investigate two magnetic impurities in graphene. We mainly study the indirect interaction between the two magnetic impurities mediated by conducting electrons, which is so called RKKY interaction. The spin-spin and charge-charge correlation functions are calculated by quantum Monte Carlo simulations when the Fermi energy of the system is changed by gate voltage. The spectral density of the two impurities is also studied by maximum entropy methods.
