Abstract: | We report the discovery of superconductivity in a number of stoichiometric A2BC ordered ternary intermetallic alloys isostructural to the prototype ferromagnetic Heusler alloy, Cu2MnAl. Ni in the superconducting Ni2BC phases appears to be behaving as a full d-band constituent. The highest superconducting critical temperature Tc, for the Ni phases surveyed is exhibited by Ni2NbSn (Tc = 3.4 K). |
