Co2MnSi Heusler alloy thin films
… a sputtering set-up to grow a binary alloy (Sm-Co) and investigating how to control the composition spread that was obtained. Having achieved this, a larger sputtering flange was built up to grow the ternary Heusler alloy, Co2MnSi. Co2MnSi has been predicted to be a half-metallic …

Sustainable Heusler and Antiferromagnetic Thin Films for High Density Data Storage
… thesis investigates thin films of Fe/Mn/Al based Heusler alloys and antiferromagnetic Mn$_3$$\it X$ ($\it X$ = Sn, Ga) as new materials for spintronic devices. Heusler alloys offer a very promising platform to tailor physical properties of materials through element compositional changes and …

Caloric effects in ferroic materials
There has been much effort to develop next generation refrigeration systems that do not use harmful fluids. Magnetocaloric, electrocaloric and mechanocaloric materials have been studied independently as potential replacement of these fluids refrigerants but each has its own limitations. More …

Structural Characterization and Thermoelectric Performance of ZrNiSn Half-Heusler Compound Synthesized by Mechanical Alloying
Thermoelectric (TE) ZrNiSn samples with a half-Heusler atomic structure were synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA) and consolidation by either Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) or hot pressing (HP). X-Ray diffraction patterns of as milled powders and consolidated samples were compared and analyzed for …
