The effect of pressure and alloying on half-metallicity of quaternary Heusler compounds CoMnYZ (Z = Al, Ga, and In)

In this work, first-principles calculations of the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Heusler alloys CoMnYAl, CoMnYGa and CoMnYIn are presented. The full potential linearized augmented plane waves (FP-LAPW) method based on the density functional theory (DFT) has been applied. The stru...
