The possibilities to induce magnetism in the non-magnetic bulk alpha-FeSi2 bymeans of lattice distortions or intercalation with metal or non-metal ions oflight elements is investigated theoretically by combined ab initio and modelmethods. We find that the distortions indeed can induce the formation ofmagnetic moment on iron atoms in certain local environments; however, therequired strength of the distortions often is too large to be achieved inexperiments. For this reason we suggest using "chemical pressure" that is,intercalating the alpha-FeSi2 films by light elements. We find that some ofsuch variants have promising characteristic.
