Some Heusler alloys ... are known to possess half metallic [property] substances that act as conductors to electrons of only one spin orientation when their atoms are in an orderly arrangement. In previous research, a high-quality GMR device was fabricated using half-metallic Heusler alloys. This device was reported to exhibit an extremely large magnetoresistance ratio, a characteristic vital to the development of hard disk [drives].
