An full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW)-based analytical study of structural, electronic, mechanical and thermoelectric properties has been done for the Ruthenium-based half heusler RuTiX (X = Si, Ge and Sn) compounds. An efficient method to develop Half Heusler (HH) alloys is by...
