basic experiments to understand the physical properties of Boron doped Fe 2 VAl alloy. The
results of ab-initio calculations on ordered L2 1 structure of Fe 2 VAl 1-x B x (x= 0, 0.5, 1)
alloys have been compared to understand the role of sp-element size on the hybridization
among their respective valance states. Interestingly, semi-metallic and paramagnetic like
ground states were found in the Boron doped alloys in similar to Fe 2 VAl, eliminating the …
