We conducted Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method to modify the Fermi level by introducing Sb doping into Co2MnSn.This was done through the Generalized Gradient Approximation (GGA) and modified Becke-Johnson (mBJ-GGA)...
