Magnetoelastic interactions and magnetic damping in Co2Fe0.4Mn0.6Si and Co2FeGa0.5Ge0.5 Heusler alloys thin films for spintronic applications

Abstract Co2Fe0.4Mn0.6Si (CFMS) and Co2FeGa0.5Ge0.5 (CFGG) Heusler alloys are among the most promising thin film materials for spintronic devices due to a high spin polarization, low magnetic damping and giant/tunneling magnetoresistance ratios. Despite numerous investigations of Heusler alloys magn...
