Unconventional Magnetization Generated from Electron Beam and Femtosecond Irradiation on α-Ag₂WO₄: A Quantum Chemical Investigation

Abstract

O, and AgO has been analyzed in detail. The creation of Ag and O vacancies on these compounds was also analyzed. Based on structural and electronic changes at the local coordination site of Ag, a mechanism was proposed. The mechanism illustrates the processes responsible for the formation and growth of metallic Ag and the magnetic response to electron beam irradiation.
