Abstract
The effective magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy associated with magnetostriction is studied for tetragonal L1-FePt by means of first-principles calculations, which is expressed in terms of the intrinsic anisotropy for an undeformed crystal, the magnetostrictive coefficients, and the elastic tensor. A very small correction is found for the first anisotropy constant %, while a much more significant contribution is obtained for the second one %. General analysis of this effect for tetragonal crystals is provided, finding that will be always positive for any stable phase with this symmetry. The potential implications and applications of these results are discussed.
