Magnetic character of holmium atom adsorbed on platinum surface

Abstract We address a recent controversy concerning the magnetic state of holmium adatom on platinum surface. Within a combination of the density functional theory (DFT) with the exact diagonalization (ED) of Anderson impurity model, the 〈J z 〉 = 0 paramagnetic ground state |J = 8, J z  = ±8〉 is fou...
