Abstract
We present spin-wave dispersion in Sm(Fe1-xCox)12 calculated based on first- principles.
Anisotropy in the lowest branch of the spin-wave dispersion around the Γ point is discussed.
Spin-waves more easily propagate along a∗-axis than along c∗-axis, especially in SmFe12.
We also compare values of the spin-wave stiffness with those obtained from an experiment. The calcu- lated values are in good agreement with the experimental values.
