First Principles Investigations of Structural and Magnetic Properties of Fe-Ni-Mn-AI Heusler Alloys

摘要

In this work the magnetic and structural properties of quaternary Fe-Ni-Mn-AI Heusler alloys are studied. We use first principles calculations to investigate crystal lattice relaxation of alloys and their coupling to the magnetic order, with a particular focus on the tetragonal distortions characterized by the c/a ratio. It follows from our calculations that Fe-Ni-Mn-AI alloys have very interesting magnetic properties and can be good candidates as multifunctional magnetic materials.
