Abstract: Based on first-principles vector spin-density total-energy calculations of the magnetic and electronic structure of Cr and Mn transition-metal monolayers on the triangular lattice of a (111) oriented Cu surface, we propose for Mn a three-dimensional noncollinear spin structure on a two-dimensional triangular lattice as magnetic ground state. This new spin structure is a multiple spin-density wave of three row-wise antiferromagnetic spin states and comes about due to magnetic interactions beyond the nearest neighbors and due to higher order spin interactions (i.e., four spin). The magnetic ground state of Cr is a coplanar noncollinear periodic 120 degrees Neel structure.
