Magnetic properties of Pd-films on piezoelectric substrates

We use ab-initio methods to optimizes the structure of a thin
Pd-film on the surface of different piezoelectric oxides and
calculate electronic and magnetic properties.
It is known from bulk Pd, that the valence electrons order
ferromagnetic at a critical expansion of the lattice constant.
With piezoelectric oxides it might be possible to control the
magnetization of the Pd-film by varying the structural parameters
