Structure and magnetism of NiFeMnGaxSn1-x (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.00) Heusler compounds

The crystal structure and magnetic properties of NiFeMnGaxSn1-x (x = 0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00) Heusler compounds have been investigated experimentally and theoretically. The computational results suggest that NiFeMnGa0.75Sn0.25 is nearly half-metallic with a spin polarization P of 87%. The bulk...
