A Review on the Magnetovolume Effect of the Full Heusler Alloys Ni<sub>2</sub>MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb)

The full Heusler alloys Ni<sub>2</sub>MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb) exhibit ferromagnetic properties with a Curie temperature (<i>T</i><sub>C</sub>) above room temperature. The magnetic properties of Ni<sub>2</sub>MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb) were studied through a com...

Description
Summary:The full Heusler alloys Ni<sub>2</sub>MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb) exhibit ferromagnetic properties with a Curie temperature (<i>T</i><sub>C</sub>) above room temperature. The magnetic properties of Ni<sub>2</sub>MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb) were studied through a combination of experiments and band calculations under ambient and elevated pressures. The main results of this study open up further prospects for controlling the magnetic properties of the multifunctional Heusler alloys Ni<sub>2</sub>Mn<sub>1+<i>x</i></sub>Z<sub>1−<i>x</i></sub> (Z = In, Sn, Sb) and their practical application.
