Atomic disorder in Heusler Co2MnGe measured by anomalous x-ray diffraction

Abstract

In "spintronic" devices, the spin of the conduction electron is used to control trasport properties. A ferromagnet, which has an imbalance in the nuber of spin-up and spin-down electrons near the Fermi level, plays the role of spin injector or spin filter.
