      Large positive magnetoresistance in nonstoichiometric NiMnSb thin films on silicon 

      Branford, W. R.; Clowes, S. K.; Syed, M. H.; Bugoslavsky, Y. V.; Gardelis, S.; Androulakis, J.; Giapintzakis, John; Grigorescu, C. E. A.; Berenov, A. V.; Roy, S. B.; Cohen, L. F. (2004)
      The transport properties of pulsed-laser-deposited NiMnSb films on silicon as a function of film thickness were discussed. It was found that a low-temperature upturn was observed in the resistivity for film thicknesses of ...

      Magneto-transport properties of NiMnSb thin films on InSb single crystals: Negative giant magnetoresistance 

      Gardelis, S.; Androulakis, J.; Viskadourakis, Z.; Papadopoulou, E. L.; Giapintzakis, John; Rai, S.; Lodha, G. S.; Roy, S. B. (2007)
      In this study we investigated the magneto-transport properties of the ohmic contact between polycrystal-line NiMnSb thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition and n-type degenerate InSb (100) substrates. An unusual negative ...

      Negative giant longitudinal magnetoresistance in NiMnSb InSb: Interface effect 

      Gardelis, S.; Androulakis, J.; Viskadourakis, Z.; Papadopoulou, E. L.; Giapintzakis, John; Rai, S.; Lodha, G. S.; Roy, S. B. (2006)
      We report on the electrical and magnetotransport properties of the contact formed between n -type degenerate InSb (100) substrates and polycrystalline NiMnSb thin films grown using pulsed laser deposition. Negative giant ...

      Spin polarisation and anomalous Hall effect in NiMnSb films 

      Branford, W. R.; Roy, S. B.; Clowes, S. K.; Miyoshi, Y.; Bugoslavsky, Y. V.; Gardelis, S.; Giapintzakis, John; Cohen, L. F. (2004)
      NiMnSb has attracted a great deal of interest as a spin injector/detector in spintronic devices because it has a Curie temperature of 728 K and is predicted to be half-metallic (100% spin polarized). NiMnSb has been reported ...

      Surface and interface study of pulsed-laser-deposited off-stoichiometric NiMnSb thin films on a Si(100) substrate 

      Rai, S.; Tiwari, M. K.; Lodha, G. S.; Modi, M. H.; Chattopadhyay, M. K.; Majumdar, S.; Gardelis, S.; Viskadourakis, Z.; Giapintzakis, John; Nandedkar, R. V.; Roy, S. B.; Chaddah, P. (2006)
      We report a detailed study of surface and interface properties of pulsed-laser-deposited NiMnSb films on a Si(100) substrate as a function of film thickness. As the thickness of films is reduced below 35 nm, formation of ...

      Thickness dependence of Hall transport in Ni1.15Mn 0.85Sb thin films on silicon 

      Branford, W. R.; Clowes, S. K.; Bugoslavsky, Y. V.; Gardelis, S.; Androulakis, J.; Giapintzakis, John; Grigorescu, C. E. A.; Manea, S. A.; Freitas, R. S.; Roy, S. B.; Cohen, L. F. (2004)
      Highly spin polarized Heusler alloys, NiMnSb and Co2MnSi, attract a great deal of interest as potential spin injectors for spintronic applications. Spintronic devices require control of interfacial properties at the ...
