We have investigated the electronic structure and magnetic properties of Mn-doped LiZnP using density functional theory within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) +U schemes. We have shown that the ground state magnetic structure of Mn-doped LiZnP is anti ferro magnetic. LiZn is the most plausible acceptor among several candidates for p-type doping and hole-mediated Zener'sp-d exchange are responsible for the origin of the Li (Zn,Mn) P ferromagnetism
