MnCoSb is an intermetallic compound belonging to the class of transition metal antimonides, composed of manganese, cobalt, and antimony in a defined stoichiometric ratio. This material is primarily of research and development interest for thermoelectric and magnetocaloric applications, where the combination of electronic and magnetic properties offers potential advantages in energy conversion and magnetic refrigeration systems. MnCoSb and related half-Heusler compounds are being investigated as alternatives to conventional thermoelectrics and permanent magnets, with particular attention to their performance in intermediate temperature ranges and their potential for sustainable, non-rare-earth-dependent device designs.
