Abstract

We report the growth of the half-Heusler alloy NiMnSb on InP (001) by molecular-beam epitaxy using a lattice-matched (In,Ga)As buffer. High-resolution x-ray diffraction confirms a high crystalline quality. Spot-profile analysis low-energy electron diffraction measurements show well-defined surface reconstructions. The samples show the expected high Curie temperature and an uniaxial anisotropy.
