half-Heusler alloys

Half-Heusler alloys are a class of crystalline materials composed of three different elements arranged in a specific pattern. They are known for their versatile properties, such as high temperature stability, good electrical conductivity, and potential for thermoelectric applications—converting heat into electricity. Their unique crystal structure allows for tailored electronic and magnetic behaviors, making them useful in energy conversion, electronics, and spintronics. Researchers study half-Heusler alloys to develop efficient, durable materials for sustainable energy solutions and advanced electronic devices.
