| We report electronic structure calculations of an iron impurity in gold host. Exact diagonalization of the multi-orbital Anderson impurity model with the full Coulomb interaction matrix and the spin-orbit coupling is performed in order to estimate the spin Hall angle. The obtained value γ_S ≈ 0.025 suggests that there is no giant extrinsic spin Hall effect due to scattering on iron impurities in gold. The possiblities to exhanse extrinsic are analyzed and discussed. |
