Calculation of Half-Metal, Debye and Curie Temperatures of CoeVAl Compound: First Principles Study

By FP-LAPW calculations, the structural, elastic, Debye and Curie temperatures, electronic and magnetic properties of Co2 VAl are investigated. The results indicate that Ferromagnetic (FM) phase is more stable than Anti- Ferromagnetic (AFM) and Non-magnetic (NM) ones. In addition, C11-C12 〉 0, C44 〉...

Description
Summary:By FP-LAPW calculations, the structural, elastic, Debye and Curie temperatures, electronic and magnetic properties of Co2 VAl are investigated. The results indicate that Ferromagnetic (FM) phase is more stable than Anti- Ferromagnetic (AFM) and Non-magnetic (NM) ones. In addition, C11-C12 〉 0, C44 〉 0, and B 〉 0 so Co2 VAl is an elastically stable material with high Debye temperature. Also, the BIG ratio exhibits a ductility behavior. The relatively high Curie temperature provides it as a favorable material for spintronic application. It's electronic and magnetic properties are studied by GGA +U approach leading to a 100% spin polarization at Fermi level.
