 abstract = {Co3Sn2S2 has recently emerged as a ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal.
Theoretical investigation of the spin-split bands predicted half
metallicity in the compound. Here, we report the detection of a
spin-polarized supercurrent through a Nb/Co3Sn2S2 point contact where
Andreev reflection is seen to be large, indicating a large deviation
from half metallicity. In fact, analysis of the Andreev reflection
spectra reveals very small spin polarization at different points with
the degree of spin polarization ranging from 20% to 50% at the Fermi
level of Co3Sn2S2. Our theoretical calculations of electronic density of
states reveal a spin-depolarizing effect near the Fermi energy when the
role of spin-orbit coupling is included. The inclusion of spin-orbit
coupling also reveals particle-hole asymmetry that explains a large
asymmetry observed in our experimental Andreev reflection spectra.},
