      Pulsed-laser deposition of NiMnSb thin films at moderate temperatures 

      Giapintzakis, John; Grigorescu, C.; Klini, A.; Manousaki, A.; Zorba, V.; Androulakis, J.; Viskadourakis, Z.; Fotakis, C. (2002)
      Thin films of the half-Heusler alloy NiMnSb, which is predicted by band-structure calculations to be a half-metallic ferromagnet, were grown on various substrates (Si and InAs) using pulsed-laser deposition. The growth ...

      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 ...
