English abstract | First principles calculations were done in the double perovskite Sr2FeMoO6 regarding the effects of cationic disorder and electronic correlation in the ground-state properties such as spin polarization and magnetic saturation. We used the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) method including a U Hubbard term. Results with 25% of disorder, where Fe-O-Fe and Mo-O-Mo configurations frequently occur, are shown. We found that disorder breaks down the half-metallic ferromagnetic behavior. We also calculated a magnetic saturation decrease from 4.0jtB per formula unit to 2.22jtB in accord with neutron magnetic scattering experiments |
