Abstract

Electronic and magnetic properties of Ru 2 VGe and Ru 2 VSb have been investigated by ab-initio. The optimized equilibrium lattice parameters were found to be 6.032 Å for Ru 2 VGe and 6.272 Å for Ru 2 VSb. Both the materials have ferromagnetic ground states and V mainly contributes to the magnetic properties in these materials. The highly spin-polarized half-metallic materials have integral magnetic moments of 1.0 μ B for Ru 2 VGe and 2.0 μ B for Ru 2 VSb with an energy gap of 0.095 eV for Ru2VGe and 0.186 eV for Ru 2 VSb in the spin-down channel.
