Slater-Pauling Behavior of the Half-Ferromagnetic Full-Heusler Alloys

I. Galanakis, P. H. Dederichs, N. Papanikolaou

Using the full-potential screened Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method we study the full-Heusler alloys based on Co, Fe, Rh and Ru. We show that many of these compounds show a half-metall…
