GGA and GGA Plus U Study of Half-Metallic Quaternary Heusler Compound CoCrScSn

The structural, mechanical, electronic, magnetic, and half-metallic properties of quaternary Heusler compound CoCrScSn are studied using the GGA and GGA + U method based on first-principles calculations. It is found that Type-I structure of CoCrScSn compound is the most stable, and its ground state...
