Zusammenfassung:
In this article the Co-2 based Heusler compounds are discussed as
potential materials for spin voltage generation. The compounds were
synthesized by arc melting and consequent annealing. Band structure
calculations were performed which revealed the compounds to be
half-metallic ferromagnets. Magnetometry was performed on the samples
and the Curie temperatures and the magnetic moments were determined. The
Seebeck coefficients were measured from low to ambient temperatures for
all compounds. For selected compounds high temperature measurements up
to 900 K were performed. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
