Magnetization and crystallographic measurements are reported for the Heusler alloy series (NixCu1−x)2MnSn. With the exception of Cu2MnSn and perhaps (Ni0.1Cu0.9)2MnSn all of the samples prepared had the cubic Heusler L21 structure at room temperature. The lattice parameter varies linearly as a function of composition. The saturation moment is constant at approximately 4μβ per manganese atom throughout the series. Curie temperatures vary smoothly but non-linearly with composition, providing some evidence for at least two competing mechanisms in the determination of the Curie temperature.

Abstract The paramagnetic susceptibility of four PdAgFe alloy series containing 1, 3, 5 and 7 at. % Fe have been measured between 20° and 150 °C. On the basis of a band filling model the local moment contribution to the susceptibility has been evaluated according to a Curie -Weiss law. Assuming that the iron atoms donate 3 electrons and the silver atoms 1 electron to the Pd 4d band, the effective magnetic moments and the paramagnetic Curie temperatures of all the alloys can be represented by a single curve against the electron concentration. The effective magnetic moment is consistent with an Fe moment of 5.92 μB localized on the iron sites and a Pd moment varying with electron concentration and temperature. The same turns out to be true for the ferromagnetic region where the saturation moment, obtained on PdFe alloys and a PdAgFe alloy by different authors, is considered to arise from a localized Fe moment of 5 μB and a concentration dependent Pd moment. The molecular field coefficient for the interaction between the Fe moments and the Pd 4d electrons is found to be 850 mol/cm3 at 385 K and 1200 mol/cm3 at 0 K. Finally, the iron moment suggested in this work is contrasted with the moment derived from neutron diffraction measurements.

Ni54Mn21-xFexGa25(x=0,1,3,5,7,9)polycrystalline alloys were prepared by the technique of directional solidification and the effect of substituting Fe for Mn on the martensitic transformation and mechanical properties of the alloys was analyzed. It was found that the Curie temperature increased with increasing substitution while the martensitic transformation temperature decreased. The Fe-doped Ni54Mn21Ga25 alloys exhibit excellent magnetic properties at room temperature; the typical Ni54Mn20Fe1Ga25 alloy shows a large magnetic-induced-strain of -1040 ppm at a magnetic field of 4000 Oe.

Nitriding thermochemical treatment under suitable parameters is used to nano-crystallize Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 ribbon. This new kind of treatment leads to finer nano-structure and modifies the structural parameters of the α-Fe(Si) phase, obtained during the treatment. The magnetic properties are also improved; specific magnetization at room temperature and Curie temperature of the crystalline phase increase, and the magnetostriction constant becomes smaller. The nitrogenation seems to offer a new way to obtain nanostructured ribbons. PACS No.: 75.70

In this paper comparative investigations of microstructure and dielectric properties of BaTiO3 ceramics doped with 1.0 wt% of Nb2O5, MnCO3 and CaZrO3 have been done. BaTiO3 samples were prepared using conventional method of solid state sintering at 13000C for two hours. Two distinguish micro structural regions can be observed in sample doped with Nb2O5. The first one, with a very small grained microstructure and the other one, with a rod like grains. In MnCO3 and CaZrO3 doped ceramics the uniform microstructure is formed with average grain size about 0.5- 2?m and 3-5?m respectively. The highest value of dielectric permittivity at room temperature and the greatest change of permittivity in function of temperature were observed in MnCO3/BaTiO3. In all investigated samples dielectric constant after initially large value at low frequency attains a constant value at f = 6kHz. A dissipation factor is independent of frequency greater than 10 kHz and, depending of systems, lies in the range from 0.035 to 0.25. At temperatures above Curie temperatures, the permittivity of all investigated samples follows a Curie- Weiss law. A slight shift of Curie temperature to the lower temperatures, in respect of Curie temperature for undoped BaTiO3, was observed in all investigated samples.

The influences of the substitution of Ni with Mg on crystallographic and magnetic properties of the intermetallic alloys LaNi5-xMgx (x ≤ 0.4) were investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that all samples were of single phase, and the lattice parameters, a and c, decreased slightly upon chemical doping. LaNi5 is well known as an exchange-enhanced Pauli paramagnet. Interestingly, in LaNi5-xMgx, the ferromagnetic order existed even with a small amount of dopants; the Curie temperature reached the value of room temperature for x = 0.2, and enhanced with increasing x.

Heusler alloys have been of great interest because of their application in the field of modern technological word. Electronic and magnetic properties of Co, Mn, Si and the Heusler alloy Co2MnSi have been studied using Density functional theory based Tight Binding Linear Muffin Tin Orbital with Atomic Sphere Approximation (TB-LMTO-ASA) approach. From the calculation lattice parameter of optimized structure of Co, Mn, Si and Co2MnSi are found to be 2.52A0 , 3.49A0 , 5.50A0 , 5.53A0 respectively. Band structure calculations show that Co and Mn are metallic, Si as semi-conducting while the Heusler alloy Co2MnSi as half-metallic in nature with band gap 0.29eV. The charge density plot indicates major bonds in Co2MnSi are ionic in nature. Magnetic property has been studied using the density of states (DOS), indicating that Co and Co2MnSi are magnetic with magnetic moment 2.85μB and 4.91μB respectively. The contribution of orbitals in band, DOS and magnetic moment are due to d-orbitals of Co and Mn and little from s and p-orbital of Si in Co2MnSi.The Himalayan Physics Vol. 6 & 7, April 2017 (31-36)

Abstract The galvanomagnetic and magnetic properties of novel diluted magnetic semiconductors Pb1-x-yCaxCryTe (x=0.06-0.20, y=0.003-0.045) have been investigated. Temperature dependencies of the resistivity and the Hall coefficient have a metallic character indicating the pinning of Fermi level by the chromium impurity level on the background of the conduction band states. Magnetization curves display a clear hysteresis loop over the whole temperature range investigated. The Curie temperature, determined from the temperature dependencies of magnetization, achieves 345 K. Possible mechanisms of ferromagnetic ordering were discussed.

This paper presents magnetic properties of manganese substituted barium hexaferrite BaFe12-xMnxO19 single crystals. Crystals of BaFe12–xMnxO19 with x up to 1.5 and sizes up to 8 mm were observed. The influence of Fe substitution by Mn on the magnetic properties was investigated. For the BaFe10.5Mn1.5O19 single crystal samples saturation magnetization reduced from 72 to 63.5 emu/g at room temperature, and Curie temperature decreased from 455 to 380 °C.
