摘要

We introduce a theoretical framework for computations of anisotropic multipolar exchange interactions found in many spin-orbit coupled magnetic systems and propose a method to extract these coupling constants using a density functional total energy calculation. This method is developed using a multipolar expansion of local density matrices for correlated orbitals that are responsible for magnetic degrees of freedom. Within the mean-field approximation, we show that each coupling constant can be recovered from a series of total energy calculations via what we call the "pair-flip" technique. This technique flips the relative,phase of a pair of multipoles and computes the corresponding total energy cost associated with the given exchange constant. To test it, we apply our method to uranium dioxide, which is a system known to have pseudospin J = 1 superexchange induced dipolar, and superexchange plus spin-lattice induced quadrupolar orderings. Our calculation reveals that the superexchange and spin-lattice contributions to the quadrupolar exchange interactions are about the same order with ferro- and antiferromagnetic contributions, respectively. This highlights a competition rather than a cooperation between them. Our method could be a promising tool to explore magnetic properties of rare-earth compounds and hidden-order materials.
