Slater–Pauling Behavior in Half-Metallic Heusler Compounds
Nanomaterials, 2023 Heusler materials have become very popular over the last two decades due to the half-metallic properties of a large number of Heusler compounds. The latter are magnets that present a metallic behavior for the spin-up and a semiconducting behavior for the

Terahertz Spectral Signatures of Ultrafast Spin Transports in Ferromagnetic Heusler Alloy
Advanced Physics Research, 2023 Although the Co‐based Heusler compounds are predicted to be half‐metals, their sub‐picosecond demagnetization dynamics upon laser excitation show a transition‐metal‐like behavior.

Subamorphous Thermal Conductivity of Crystalline Half-Heusler Superlattices [PDF]
Nanoscale and Microscale Thermophysical Engineering, 2018 The quest to improve the thermoelectric figure of merit has mainly followed the roadmap of lowering the thermal conductivity while keeping unaltered the power factor of the material. Ideally an electron-crystal phonon-glass system is desired. In this work, we report an extraordinary reduction of the cross-plane thermal conductivity in crystalline ...

Realizing high figure of merit in heavy-band p-type half-Heusler thermoelectric materials
Nature Communications, 2015 Solid-state thermoelectric technology offers a promising solution for converting waste heat to useful electrical power. Both high operating temperature and high figure of merit zT are desirable for high-efficiency thermoelectric power generation. Here we

Half‐Metallic Full‐Heusler and Half‐Heusler Compounds with Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy
physica status solidi (b), 2023 Herein, a mechanism is proposed as to how thin films formed from a Heusler compound can simultaneously have both perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and be half‐metallic.

Enhanced thermoelectric performance in TiNiSn-based half-Heuslers [PDF]
Chemical Communications, 2013 Thermoelectric figures of merit, ZT > 0.5, have been obtained in arc-melted TiNiSn-based ingots. This promising conversion efficiency is due to a low lattice thermal conductivity, which is attributed to excess nickel in the half-Heusler structure.
