Compositional trends in Ni-Mn-Ga Heusler alloys: first-principles approach
In this work we present a systematic investigation of magnetic and structural properties of a broad range of Ni-Mn-Ga alloys by means of the density functional theory. Calculations are carried out for the cubic austenitic phase. The effect of chemical disorder is simulated by using the single-site c...
