Investigation of mechanical, thermodynamical, dynamical and electronic properties of RuYAs (Y = Cr and Fe) alloys

Dipangkar Kalita et al.

Summary: In this study, the structural, dynamical, mechanical, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of RuYAs (Y = Cr and Fe) alloys were investigated using first-principles calculations. The energetically favorable structural phase was found to be the 'alpha' phase for both RuCrAs and RuFeAs compounds. The computed cohesive energies and phonon dispersion spectra indicated the stability of both compounds. Mechanical stability was studied using elastic constants, which revealed that RuFeAs is more ductile than RuCrAs. The thermodynamic properties were estimated using the quasi-harmonic Debye model under different pressures. The electronic structure, analyzed using the GGA + U approach, showed half-metallicity for both compounds and covalent bonding among the atoms. Bader analysis revealed charge transfer from Cr/Fe to Ru and As atoms. Raman and infrared active modes were identified in the compounds.

Giant magnetoresistance in spin valves realized by substituting Y-site atoms in Heusler lattice

Lei Zhang et al.

Summary: In this study, a high-performance "All-Heusler" spin valve is constructed by replacing atoms in the electrode material. The most stable interface is determined using first-principles calculations, and it is found that the half-metallicity at the interface is maintained. The spin valve exhibits significant theoretical magnetoresistance.

Large magnetoresistance in Heusler alloy-based current perpendicular to plane giant magnetoresistance sensors

N. Saenphum et al.

Summary: This paper explores the use of GMR heads to improve reader performance by studying the effect of material properties and layer thickness on RA and MR ratio. It is found that using a Co2FeAl Heusler alloy electrode in the spin valve leads to better performance compared to conventional ferromagnetic materials. Additionally, the study considers the thickness dependence of Delta RA and its relationship with the spin diffusion length of nonmagnetic materials.
