Effect of the Y element on the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Heusler compounds Co2YIn (Y = V, Nb, and Ti): An ab initio study

We report the effect of varying the Y element on the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Co2YIn (Y = V, Nb, Ti) Heusler compounds using Density Functional Theory (DFT). The effect of the lattice parameter and total number of valence electrons on spin polarization and the magnetic prope...
