Abstract

Properties such as potential discontinuity and half-metallic behavior were determined for Co2MnGe/GaAs and Co2MnGe/Ge interfaces. Interface states appeared in both sides of the junctions, so that half-metallicity was lost. The effects of possible Co-Mn antisites in bulk Co2MnGe were investigated.
