摘要

Ab initio calculations were used to explore the electronic, magnetic and elastic properties of ZrTM(TM = V, Cr, Mn)TiSi Heusler alloys. A detailed discussion is presented regarding the half-metallic and magnetic properties at their equilib.rium lattice constants. The results showed that for all compounds ZrTM(TM = V, Cr, Mn)TiSi, the type Y1 is energetically more stable at the equilibrium volume. These compounds’ band structures and density of states were examined, and the reason behind half-metallicity was explored. ZrVTiSi and ZrCrTiSi have a total magnetic moment of \({{\mu }_{{\text{B}}}}\) and 0 per formula unit respectively, and it obeys the Slater–Pauling rule: \({{\mu }_{T}} = 18 - {{Z}_{T}}\) ( \({{\mu }_{T}}\) is the total magnetic moment per unit cell and \({{Z}_{T}}\) is the valence concentration). The computed elastic constants C11, C12, and C44 are all positive and follow the Born criteria, which confirmed that these Heusler compounds are mechanically stable.
