Calculations were performed by incorporating various atomic anti-site disorders, and the minimum energy structure causing the fully compensated ferrimagnetic state with high Curie temperature in Mn2V0.5Co0.5Al was identified to be L 21 with Mn-Co disorder. This L 21 phase, along with the ferrimagnetic interaction among the parallelly coupled (Mn(A)-Mn(C)) and (V-Co) pairs, gives rise to the fully compensated ferrimagnetism in the half-metallic Mn2V0.5Co0.5Al Heusler alloy. Increasing Co concentration in Mn?VAl induces a change in structure from the L 2? phase to the X ? phase. The peculiar spin gapless semiconducting behavior of Mn2CoAl was evident from the ab initio results. Ab initio results have explained the previously reported anomalies in the electrical resistivity of Mn2V1-xCoxAl. Neutron diffraction analysis has confirmed, for the first time, that Mn2V0.5Co0.5Al has a disordered L 2? structure, which agrees with the ab initio results. 2025 Elsevier B.V.
