The authors have studied a number of alloys of the type X2YZ, where X represents a 3d transition metal (or Cu), Y a second 3d transition metal or one of the elements La, Th, Zr, Hf, Ta, Nb, W or Mo, and Z either Al or Ga. It was found that only a limited number of these combinations leads to the cubic L21Heusler-type compounds. The lattice constants of these compounds were determined. The formation of the Heusler L21-type phase was compared with model predictions. A study to the magnetic properties and the room temperature Kerr rotation of the L21-type Heusler compounds showed that there is hardly any correlation between the Kerr rotation in the ferromagnetic Heusler alloys and the corresponding magnetization. In the Co2YAl and Co2YGa series the moment per Co atom and the electronegativity difference between Co and the Y component showed a linear dependence.
