title: Electronic structure of the two-leg spin ladder (C5H12N)2CuBr4.
abstract: A density functional theory study of the two-leg spin ladder (C(5)H(12)N)(2)CuBr(4) reveals antiferromagnetic interactions through the rungs and legs, although the latter are significantly smaller. Our work suggests interest in manipulating the physical behavior of this prototypical system by doping or chemical modifications.
