Abstract
⺠We calculated magnetic interactions in Mn doped dilute magnetic Si using hybrid exchange DFT. ⺠We find magnetic interactions depend on the type of back ground carriers. ⺠For 1.6% Mn, ground state is ferromagnetic for the p-type Si, but antiferromagnetic for the n-type. ⺠In p-type host, localisation of magnetic polarons on Mn enhances long range magnetic interaction. ⺠In n-type host e-e repulsion within Mn-Si impurity band destroys the long range spin polarisation.
