Undercooling growth and magnetic characterization of ferromagnetic shape memory alloy Ni2FeGa single crystals
Jin-Feng Qian, Hong Guo Zhang, Jing Lan Chen +2
Ni2FeGa single crystals have been grown in undercooling conditions provided by a glass-purification method. It has been found that trace amounts of gamma phase embededin the single…
A new class of topological insulators from I-III-IV half-Heusler compounds with strong band inversion strength
X. M. Zhang, G. Z. Xu, Y. Du +4
In this paper, by first principle calculations, we investigate systematically the band topology of a new half-Heusler family with composition of I(A)-III(A)-IV(A). The results clea…
Large Linear Magnetoresistance and Shubnikov-de Hass Oscillations in Single Crystals of YPdBi Heusler Topological Insulators
Wenhong Wang, Yin Du, Guizhou Xu +7
We report the observation of a large linear magnetoresistance (MR) and Shubnikov-de Hass (SdH) quantum oscillations in single crystals of YPdBi Heusler topological insulators. Owni…
Crossover of magnetoresistance in the zerogap half-metallic Heusler alloy Fe2CoSi
Y. Du, G. Z. Xu, X. M. Zhang +5
This work reports on the band structure and magneto-transport investigations of the inverse Heusler compound Fe2CoSi. The first-principles calculations reveal that Fe2CoSi has a ve…
Disorder-induced significant enhancement in magnetization of ball-milled Fe2CrGa alloy
H. G. Zhang, C. Z. Zhang, W. Zhu +6
A new disordered atom configuration in Fe2CrGa alloy has been created by ball-milling method. This leads to a significant enhancement of the magnetic moment up to 3.2~3.9 μB and an…
Structure and magnetic properties of Heusler alloy Fe2NiZ (Z=Al, Ga, Si and Ge)
Y. J. Zhang, W. H. Wang, H. G. Zhang +3
The Heusler alloys Fe2NiZ (Z=Al, Ga, Si and Ge) have been synthesized and investigated focusing on the phase stability and the magnetic properties. The experimental and theoretical…
