“…In recent years, a variety of methods have been used to investigate Zr-based and As-based half Heusler alloys. Some As and Zr-based half Heusler compounds have been studied for structural, electronic, thermoelectric, half-metallic and elastic properties both theoretically and experimentally such as FeZrX (X = P, As, Sb and Bi) (12), MnZrX (X = In, Tl, C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, N, P, As, Sb, O, S, Se, Te) half-Heusler compounds (13), VZrAs and VZrSb half-Heusler compounds and Al 1-x M x As (M = Co, Fe and x = 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25) diluted magnetic semiconductors (14).…”
