Half-Heusler semiconductors as piezoelectrics
Physical Review Letters, 2012 One of the central challenges in materials science is the design of functional and multifunctional materials, in which large responses are produced by applied fields and stresses. A rapidly developing paradigm for the rational design of such materials is

Superconductivity in half-Heusler compound TbPdBi
Physical Review B, 2018 We have studied the half-Heusler compound TbPdBi through resistivity, magnetization, Hall effect and heat capacity measurements. A semimetal behavior is observed in its normal state transport properties, which is characterized by a large negative ...

Heusler alloys for spintronic devices: review on recent development and future perspectives
Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2021 Heusler alloys are theoretically predicted to become half-metals at room temperature (RT). The advantages of using these alloys are good lattice matching with major substrates, high Curie temperature above RT and intermetallic controllability for spin ...

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019 Since their discovery around a century ago, the structure and chemistry of the multi-functional half-Heusler semiconductors have been studied extensively as three component systems. The elemental groups constituting these ternary compounds with the nominal formula XYZ are well established where most stable compositions follow a valence balanced rule (a

Opening the Bandgap of Metallic Half‐Heuslers via the Introduction of d–d Orbital Interactions
Advanced Science, 2023 Half‐Heusler compounds with semiconducting behavior have been developed as high‐performance thermoelectric materials for power generation. Many half‐Heusler compounds also exhibit metallic behavior without a bandgap and thus inferior thermoelectric ...
