First-principles and Monte Carlo studies of C-doped Ni45Co5Mn37In13 Heusler alloys

In this work, we report the study of the effect of carbon on electronic and magnetic properties of the Ni45Co5Mn37In13 alloy. Two compounds with addition of 5 at.% C for Mn and In with ferro- and ferrimagnetic spin configurations have been discussed in the framework of first-principles and Monte Car...
