High spin polarization of the anomalous Hall current in Co-based Heusler compounds

Based on first principles density functional calculations of the intrinsic anomalous and spin Hall conductivities, we predict that the charge Hall current in Co-based full Heusler compounds Co _2 XZ (X = Cr and Mn; Z = Al, Si, Ga, Ge, In and Sn), except Co _2 CrGa, would be almost fully spin polariz...
