We experimentally show that half-metallic Co 2 MnSi films can be grown on SrTiO 3 (001) at around 350° C by molecular beam epitaxy. Despite relatively low-temperature grown Co 2 MnSi films, L 2 1-ordered structures, high saturation magnetic moments of∼ 5.0 μ B/fu, and the negative sign of the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) indicating half-metallic nature are obtained. For the 350° C-grown Co 2 MnSi films, a low Gilbert damping constant of∼ 0.0035, implying the high spin polarization, is evaluated. This study will open a way for developing novel spintronic applications consisting of Co 2 MnSi and perovskite oxides such as high-performance interfacial multiferroic systems and efficient spin-to-charge conversion systems.
