The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) scheme in the first-principles calculations are used to study the effect of L21 and XA ordering on the phase stability, half-metallicity and magnetism of Co2FeAl (CFA) Heusler alloy. Various…
Half-metallicity, low magnetic damping and high curie temperature (TC) are crucial for application in spintronics and full Heusler alloys in this regard exhibit remarkable properties. Herein, we have considered Co2FeAl (CFA) and Fe2CoAl…
The phase stabilities and ordering tendencies in the quaternary full-Heusler alloys NiCoMnAl and NiCoMnGa have been investigated by in-situ neutron diffraction, calorimetry and magnetization measurements. NiCoMnGa was found to adopt the…
We report the results of experimental investigations on structural, magnetic, resistivity, caloric properties of Fe$_2$RhZ (Z=Si,Ge) along with \textit{ab-initio} band structure calculations using first principle simulations. Both these…
Density functional theory calculations within the generalized gradient approximation are employed to study the ground state of Co2FeAl. Various magnetic configurations are considered to find out its most stable phase. The ferromagnetic…
The present work reports on the new soft ferromagnetic Heusler phases Fe2NiGe, Fe2CuGa, and Fe2CuAl, which in previous theoretical studies have been predicted to exist in a tetragonal regular Heusler structure. Together with the known…

We present a detailed structural investigation via neutron diffraction of differently heat treated samples Fe2VAl and Fe2+xV1-xAl. Moreover, the magnetic behaviour of these materials is studied by means of mSR and Mossbauer-experiments. Our…
The half-Heusler alloy RuMnGa having valence electron count (VEC) 18 has recently been theoretically proposed to exhibit compensated ferrimagnetic (CFiM) character instead of the expected nonmagnetic ground state. On the other hand, a…
In this article, we investigated the effect of Cr substitution in place of Fe on the structural, magnetic and transport properties of $\mathrm{Co_2FeSi}$ alloy. A comprehensive structural analysis is done using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and…
First-principle calculations were performed within the framework of the density functional theory (DFT) using FP-LAPW method as implemented in WIEN2k code to determine the structural stability, electronic and magnetic properties of…
The authors developed a new analysis approach for evaluation of atomic ordering in full-Heusler alloys, which is extension of the commonly used Webster model. Our model can give accurate physical formalism for the degree of atomic ordering…
Magnetic properties of multicomponent alloys depend sensitively on the degree of atomic order on the different crystallographic sites. In this work we demonstrate the magnetic contrast between bulk and thin-film samples of the Heusler alloy…
Chromium based inverse Heusler compounds of the type Cr2YZ (Y=Co, Fe; Z=Al, Ga, In, Si, Ge, Sn) have been proposed as fully compensated half-metallic ferrimagnets. Such materials are of large interest for spintronics because they combine…
We study the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of Co$_2$ZAl compounds employing a pseudopotential electronic bandstructure method. The stability of the compounds is established through the formation and cohesive energy…
Bulk Au-Fe alloys separate into Au-based fcc and Fe-based bcc phases, but L1$_0$ and L1$_2$ orderings were reported in single-phase Au-Fe nanoparticles. Motivated by these observations, we study the structural and ordering energetics in…

A brief survey of experimental and theoretical studies of half-metallic ferromagnets (HMFs) and spin gapless semiconductors is given, the possible candidates being the X$_2$YZ (X = Mn, Fe, Co; Y = Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni; Z = Al, Si, Ga,…
Half-metallic ferromagnets (HMF) are on one of the most promising materials in the field of spintronics due to their unique band structure consisting of one spin sub-band having metallic characteristics along with another sub-band with…
