First principles study of full Heusler Rh2TiGe compound

M. Sundareswari and S. Krishna

Abstract

Spin Polarized Band Structure calculation of Rh2TiGe compound is reported for the first time using FP-LAPW method treated with PBE-GGA exchange correlation. The percentage error in optimized lattice parameter is found to be 1.2%. This material is found to be metallic and diamagnetic. Near Fermi Energy level is mainly occupied by Rh-d and Ti-d-electrons. Bulk modulus and magnetic moment values are reported.
