Density functional theory study of energetics, local chemical environment and magnetic properties in a high-entropic MnNiSi0.2Ge0.2Sn0.2Al0.2Ga0.2 intermetallic magnet

Rare-earth-free magnetostructural MnNiSi-based solid solutions are considered as promising candidates for solid-state cooling applications. In this paper, we use density functional theory calculations to study the energetics, variations in atomic displacements and bond length, and magnetic propertie...
