dc.descriptionThe ferromagnetic spin exchange interaction between the itinerant electrons and localized moments on a periodic lattice, studied within the so-called Kondo lattice model (KLM), is considered for multiband situation where the hopping integral is a matrix, in general. The modified RKKY theory, wherein one can map such a model onto an effective Heisenberg-like system, is extended to a multi-band case with finite bandwidth and hybridization on a simple cubic lattice. As an input for the evaluation of the effective exchange integrals, one requires the multi-band electronic self energy which is taken from an earlier proposed ansatz. Using the above procedure, we determine the magnetic properties of the system like Curie temperature while calculating the chemical potential and magnetization within a self consistent scheme for various values of system parameters. The results are discussed in detail and the model is motivated in order to study the electronic, transport and magnetic properties of real materials like GdN.
