We present the rational design scheme intended to provide the stable high spin-polarization at the interfaces of the magneto-resistive junctions by fulfilling the criteria of structural and chemical compatibilities at the interface. This can be realized by joining the semiconducting and half-metallic Heusler materials with similar structures. The present first-principal calculations verify that interface remains half-metallic if the nearest interface layers effectively form a stable Heusler material with the properties intermediate between the surrounding bulk parts. This leads to a simple rule for selecting the proper combinations.
