dc.description.abstractIn this work, we present structural, electronic, magnetic, mechanical and transport properties of equiatomic quaternary Heusler alloy, CoRhMnGe using both theoretical and experimental techniques. A detailed structural analysis is performed using X-ray diffraction(XRD) and extended X-ray absorption ne structure(EXAFS) spectroscopy. The alloy is found to crystallize in Y-type structure having space group F43m (# 216). The ab-initio simulation pedict half-metallic ferromagnetic characteristics leading to large spin polarization. The calculated magnetization is found to be in fair agreement with experiment as well as those predicted by the Slater-Pauling rule, which is a prerequisite for half-metallicity. The magnetic transition temperature(TC) is found to be ~760 K. Measured electrical resistivity in the temperature range 2-400 K also gives an indication of half-metallic behavior. Simulated resistivity matches fairly well with those measured, with the temperature dependant carrier relaxation time lying in the range 1-2 fs. Effect of hydrostatic pressure on electronic structure, magnetic and mechanical properties are investigated in detail. The alloy is found to preserve half-metallic characteristics upto 30.27 GPa beyond which it transit to metallic phase. No magnetic phase transition is found to occur in the whole range of pressure. The system also satis es the Born-Huang criteria for mechanical stability upto a limited range of pressure. All these properties make CoRhMnGe alloy promising for spintronics devices.en_US
