Theoretical study of the structural stability, electronic and magnetic properties of XVSb (X = Fe, Ni, and Co) half-Heusler compounds

The structural, electronic and magnetic properties of half-Heusler compounds XVSb (X = Fe, Co and Ni) are investigated by using the density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation (GGA), and Tran-Blaha modified Becke-Johnson (TB-mBJ) exchange potential approximation. It is found th...
