Abstract

Background

  • Spin degree of freedom in electronic devices.
  • Ideal candidate – room temperature half-metal.
  • Heusler compounds attractive because of high Curie temperature
  • Various mechanisms altering degree of spin polarization – mechanical strain, structural disorder, temperature, termination surface/interface, etc.
  • CoMnVSb: nearly a spin gapless semiconductor.
