  Electron-electron correlations affect the band gap of half-metallic
ferromagnets by introducing non-quasiparticle states just above the Fermi
level. In contrast to the spin-orbit coupling, a large asymmetric
non-quasiparticle spectral weight is present in the minority-spin channel,
leading to a peculiar finite-temperature spin depolarization effects. Using
recently developed first-principle dynamical mean field theory, we investigate
these effects for the half-metallic ferrimagnetic Heusler compound FeMnSb. We
discuss depolarization effects in terms of strength of local Coulomb
interaction $U$ and temperature in FeMnSb. We propose Ni$_{1-x}$Fe$_{x}$MnSb
alloys as a perspective materials to be used in spin-valve structures and for
experimental search of non-quasiparticle states in half-metallic materials.
