Interface properties of the NiMnSb/InP and NiMnSb/GaAs contacts
I. Galanakis, M. Lezaic, G. Bihlmayer +1
We study the electronic and magnetic properties of the interfaces between the half-metallic Heusler alloy NiMnSb and the binary semiconductors InP and GaAs using two different stat…
Towards half-metallic interfaces: the CoCrAl/InP contacts
I. Galanakis
Although the interest on half-metallic Heusler alloys, susceptible to be used in spintronic applications, has considerably grown, their interfaces with semiconductors show very low…
Electronic and magnetic properties of the (111) surfaces of NiMnSb
I. Galanakis
Using an ab-initio electronic structure method, I study the (111) surfaces of the half-metallic NiMnSb alloy. In all cases there is a very pronounced surface state within the minor…
Half-metallicity and Slater-Pauling behavior in the ferromagnetic Heusler alloys
I. Galanakis, P. H. Dederichs
Introductory chapter for the book "Halfmetallic Alloys - Fundamentals and Applications" to be published in the series Springer Lecture Notes on Physics, P. H. Dederichs and I. Gala…
Orbital magnetism in the half-metallic Heusler alloys
I. Galanakis
Using the fully-relativistic screened Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method I study the orbital magnetism in the half-metallic Heusler alloys. Orbital moments are almost completely quenche…
Multilayers of Zinc-Blende Half-Metals with Semiconductors
Ph. Mavropoulos, I. Galanakis, P. H. Dederichs
We report on first-principles calculations of multilayers of zinc-blende half-metallic ferromagnets CrAs and CrSb with III-V and II-VI semiconductors, in the [001] orientation. We…
