Temperature insensitivity of the spin-polarization in Co2MnSi films on GaAs (001)

The Heusler alloys Co2MnSi and NiMnSb are predicted to be 100% spin-polarized and are leading candidate materials for spin-injection and detection in hybrid spintronic devices. Co2MnSi is lattice matched with GaAs, whereas NiMnSb is strongly mismatched to GaAs. Here, we study the temperature and thi...
