It is shown by rigorous ab initio calculations that half-Heusler alloys oftransition metals and $d^0$ metals, defined by the valence electronicconfiguration $ns^{1,2},(n-1)d^0$, can produce all kinds of half-metallicbehavior including the elusive Dirac half-semimetallicity that is reported forthe first time in the real 3D material CoKSb. Together with the predictedmagnetic and chemical stability, this paves the way for massless anddissipationless spintronics of the future. Furthermore, the introduction of$d^0$ atoms is shown to stabilize the otherwise instable chemical structure ofzinc-blende transition metal pnictides and chalcogeneides without altering the$p$-$d$ exchange that is mainly responsible for their half-metallicity,therefore, making their application in spintronic devices feasible.
