The structural stability and magnetic properties of the cubic and tetragonal phases of Mn3Z (Z = Ga, In, Tl, Ge, Sn, Pb) Heusler alloys are studied by using first-principles calculations. It is found that with the increasing of the atomic radius of Z atom, the more stable phase varies from the cubic to the tetragonal structure. With increasing tetragonal distortion, the magnetic moments of Mn (A/C and B) atoms change in a regular way, which can be traced back to the change of the relative distance and the covalent hybridization between the atoms.

In this work the magnetic and structural properties of quaternary Fe-Ni-Mn-Al Heusler alloys are studied. We use first principles calculations to investigate crystal lattice relaxation of alloys and their coupling to the magnetic order, with a particular focus on the tetragonal distortions characterized by the c/a ratio. It follows from our calculations that Fe-Ni-Mn-Al alloys have very interesting magnetic properties and can be good candidates as multifunctional magnetic materials.
