abstract = {We report the growth of large single-crystals of Cu2MnAl, a
ferromagnetic Heusler compound suitable for polarizing
neutron monochromators, by means of optical floating zone
under ultra-high vacuum compatible conditions. Unlike
Bridgman or Czochralsky grown Cu2MnAl, our floating zone
grown single-crystals show highly reproducible magnetic
properties and an excellent crystal quality with a narrow
and homogeneous mosaic spread as examined by neutron
diffraction. An investigation of the polarizing properties
in neutron scattering suggests a high polarization
efficiency, limited by the relatively small sample
dimensions studied. Our study identifies optical floating
zone under ultra-high vacuum compatible conditions as a
highly reproducible method to grow high-quality
single-crystals of Cu2MnAl.},
