Unprecedentedly Wide Curie-Temperature Windows as Phase-Transition Design Platform for Tunable Magneto-Multifunctional Materials

Zhi-Yang Wei, En-Ke Liu, Yong Li +8

A series of unprecedentedly wide Curie-temperature windows (CTWs) between 40 and 450 K are realized by employing the isostructural alloying principle for the strongly coupled magne…

A coupling of martensitic and metamagnetic transitions with collective magneto-volume and table-like magnetocaloric effects

E. K. Liu, Z. Y. Wei, Y. Li +5

A coupling of the first-order paramagnetic-to-induced-ferromagnetic martensitic and the second-order antiferromagnetic-to-ferromagnetic metamagnetic transitions was found in MnNi0.…

Topological Insulators in Hexagonal Wurtzite-type Binary Compounds

X. M. Zhang, R S. Ma, X. C. Liu +5

We propose new topological insulators in hexagonal wurtzite-type binary compounds based on the first principles calculations. It is found that two compounds AgI and AuI are three-d…

Generalized Slater-Pauling rule for the inverse Heusler compounds

S. Skaftouros, K. Ozdogan, E. Sasioglu +1

We present extensive first-principles calculations on the inverse full-Heusler compounds having the chemical formula XYZ where (X = Sc, Ti, V, Cr or Mn), (Z = Al, Si or As) and…
