摘要
In a recent article by Rai et al. (2014), the electronic, magnetic, optical and elastic properties of Cu2MnAl heusler have been studied by using FPLAPW method. I studied their article and I found that there are some mistakes in represented electronic, optical and elastic data. The intraband contribution has not been considered in investigating optical properties. Also the values of elastic constants are very different from the experimental and my computed values. I investigated all data again by using similar method, so each spectrum has been compared with Rai et al. calculations. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
