Abstract

In this work, the electro-optical and magnetic characteristics of Be1-xCrxS (x= 6.25%, 12.5% and 25%) are brought into investigation by employing full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) scheme designed within density functional theory (DFT). The stability of the Be1-xCrxS alloy is justified by the negative values of formation energy. The band structures and density of states are examined by using GGA functional. Be1-xCrxS compound demonstrates the half-metallic (HM) ferromagnetic behavior for all doping concentrations; spin-up channel reveals the metallic character and other spin version displays the semiconductor (SC) behavior. The values of total magnetic moment (µB) are recorded as 4.0 8.0 and 16.0 µB for corresponding 6.25%, 12.5% and 25%, which mainly arises owing to Cr-3d state. Moreover, optical features including dielectric function ε(ꞷ), reflectivity, refraction, and absorption are explored within range of 0-10 eV. The maximum absorption of incident photons was found in ultraviolet (UV) span which implies their importance for optoelectronic applications. Results reveal that the studied alloy has potential applications in magnetic and optoelectronic gadgets.
