Phenomenological formula of NMR satellite of Heusler alloys and magnetic structure of Mn2VAl

Reduction of the substitutional disorder by heat treatments in Mn2-xCoxVAl Heusler alloys

“…The contraction of the lattice parameter for the annealed samples suggests that the heat treatment increases the order in our samples and reduces the internal stress. Also, the values of the lattice parameter are in agreement with others results reported in literature (5.92 Å) [3,12,13]. The neutron diffraction experiments have been employed in order to investigate the crystallographic structural properties of our samples.…”

Accelerated discovery of new magnets in the Heusler alloy family

“…4 ). In the case of the two regular HAs (Mn 2 VAl and Mn 2 VGa), the magnetic order is ferrimagnetic, with the two Mn ions at the tetrahedral sites being antiferromagnetically coupled to V ( 28 – 30 ). In contrast for the inverse Mn 2 -based HAs, the antiferromagnetic alignment is between the two Mn ions, and the magnetic ground state thus depends on whether there are other magnetic ions in the compound.…”

Probing the random distribution of half-metallic Co2Mn1−xFexSi Heusler alloys

“…10,11 Although Eq. ͑3͒ will be used throughout the further analysis, it should be mentioned that it is a very simple model and a complete description should also include the change of the local magnetic moments and hyperfine fields with the alteration of the environment.…”
