Density functional simulations play an important role in explaining experimental observations and predicting new phenomena/materials for innovative applications. I will discuss results of our recent studies for properties of several diluted magnetic semiconductors, alloys and thin films. For example, we demonstrated that XMCD can be used as a tool to identify the local atomic structures of (Ga,Mn)As, and established a model that a large percentage of interstitial/substitutional Mn dimers is involved in this DMS. We also studied the k-edge of XMCD of O atoms on various magnetic surfaces for understanding the mechanism of spin-reorientation transitions. It was found that DFT calculations provide highly reliable results for most cases.
