Abstract and subjects
We used a quantum Monte Carlo method to study the magnetic impurity adatoms on graphene. We found that by tuning the chemical potential we could switch the values of the impurity local magnet moment between relatively large and small values. Our computations of the impurity spectral density found its behavior to differ significantly from that of an impurity in a normal metal and our computations of the charge-charge and spin-spin correlations between the impurity and the conduction-band electrons found them to be strongly suppressed. In general, our results are consistent with those from poor man's scaling and numerical renormalization group methods.
