      abstract     = {Half-metallic ferromagnetic full-Heusler alloys containing
                      Co and Mn, having the formula CO(2)MnZ where Z is a sp
                      element, are among the most studied Heusler alloys due to
                      their stable ferromagnetism and the high Curie temperatures
                      which they present. Using state-of-the-art electronic
                      structure calculations we show that when Mn atoms migrate to
                      sites occupied in the perfect alloys by Co, these Mn atoms
                      have spin moments antiparallel to the other transition metal
                      atoms. The ferrimagnetic compounds, which result from this
                      procedure, keep the half-metallic character of the parent
                      compounds and the large exchange-splitting of the Mn
                      impurities atoms only marginally affects the width of the
                      gap in the minority-spin band. The case of [Co1-xMnx](2)MnSi
                      is of particular interest since Mn3Si is known to
                      crystallize in the Heusler L2(1) lattice structure of
                      CO(2)MnZ compounds. Robust half-metallic ferrimagnets are
                      highly desirable for realistic applications since they lead
                      to smaller energy losses due to the lower external magnetic
                      fields created with respect to their ferromagnetic
                      counterparts. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.},
