Fig. 3. Calculated spin structure of the Fe20 chain without and with Co5 termination.

Fig. 3

a Top view of the calculated spin structure in the Co5–Fe20–Co5 chain. Blue and red spheres correspond to Co and Fe atoms, respectively. The length of the arrows is proportional to the size of the in-plane component of the magnetic moment at each particular site. b x, y, and z components of the magnetic moments in the Co5–Fe20–Co5-, the Fe20–Co5-, and the Fe20 chains. c Side view of the Co5–Fe20–Co5 chain cycloidal spin spiral along the negative x direction. d Total magnetic moment of the atoms along all three chains.
