Competition between cubic and tetragonal phases in all-d-metal Heusler alloys, X2−xMn1+xV (X = Pd, Ni, Pt, Ag, Au, Ir, Co; x = 1, 0): a new potential direction of the Heusler family

In this work, a series of all-d-metal Heusler alloys, X2 − xMn1 + xV (X = Pd, Ni, Pt, Ag, Au, Ir, Co; x; = 1, 0), were predicted by first principles. The series can be roughly divided into two categories: XMn2V (Mn-rich type) and X2MnV (Mn-poor type). Using optimized structural analysis, it is shown...
