119Sn Mössbauer effect, magnetization, and X-ray diffraction measurements have been made on the series of Heusler alloys CO2Mn1−xTixSn (0 ≤ x ≤ 1). The Mössbauer measurements are used to obtain the distribution of hyperfine fields by the Fourier expansion method of Window, This distribution is discussed in terms of the state of chemical ordering of the alloys, as indicated by the X-ray measurements. The magnetization measurements are compared with previous results by Webster and Sobezak, and are used to estimate the magnetic hyperfine fields as predicted by the Jena–Geldart theory.

The 119Sn hyperfine field in the Heusler alloys Ir1.07Mn1.07Sn0.86, PtMnSn, Ni2MnSn, Co2MnSn, and Pd2MnSn has been measured using the Mössbauer effect. Hyperfine field distributions were obtained from the Mössbauer spectra via the Fourier expansion method of Window. The spectra of Ni2MnSn, Co2MnSn, and Pd2MnSn showed a well-defined value of the hyperfine field. This indicates a well-ordered structure and is consistent with previous neutron diffraction and NMR measurements on these alloys. The Ir1.07Mn1.07Sn0.86 and PtMnSn spectra, on the other hand, showed a wide distribution of fields, indicating a considerable amount of disorder. The extent and type of disorder, as indicated by X-ray diffraction measurements, are also considered.

ABSTRACTSamples of Ni57-xNdxFe18Ga25 with x=2 and 4 were prepared in ribbon form by rapid quenching via melt spinning route. The samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), magnetic measurements and Mössbauer spectroscopy, both in the as-quenched form and after thermal annealing at 900 oC for 2 min and 400 °C for 2 hours. For x=2 the Nd atoms are completely dissolved in the Ni-Fe-Ga matrix, while for x=4 the additional occurrence of the secondary 2:17 phase could be resolved. These findings were supported by the analysis of hyperfine magnetic field distributions obtained from the non-linear least-squares fitting of the Mössbauer spectra.

The structure and thermal behavior are key factors that influence the functional response of Ni–Mn–Sn alloys. The present study reports the production as well as the structure and thermal analysis of melt-spun (solidification rate: 40 ms−1) Ni50 Mn50−xSnx (x = 10, 11, 12 and 13 at.%) alloys. X-ray diffraction measurements were performed at room temperature. The austenite state has an L21 structure, whereas the structure of the martensite is 7M or 10M (depending on the Sn/Mn percentage). Furthermore, the structural martensitic transformation was detected by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). As expected, upon increasing the Sn content, the characteristic temperatures also increase. The same tendency is detected in the thermodynamic parameters (entropy and enthalpy). The e/a control allows the development production of alloys with a transformation close to room temperature.

ABSTRACTCrystallization of aluminosilicates during the conversion of Hanford high-level waste (HLW) to glass is a function of the composition of the glass-forming melt. In high-sodium, high-aluminum waste streams, the crystallization of nepheline (NaAlSiO4) removes chemically durable glass-formers from the melt, leaving behind a residual melt that is enriched in less durable components, such as sodium and boron. We seek to further understand the effect of lithium, boron, and iron addition on the crystallization of model silicate glasses as analogues for the complex waste glass. Boron and iron behave as glass intermediates which allow for crystallization when present in low additions but frustrate crystallization in high additions. In this work, we seek to compare the average structures of quenched and heat treated glasses through Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometry, and X-ray pair distribution function analysis. The endmembers of this study are feldspathoid-like (LiAlSiO4, NaAlSiO4, NaBSiO4, and NaFeSiO4), pyroxene-like (LiAlSi2O6, NaAlSi2O6, NaBSi2O6, and NaFeSi2O6), and feldspar-like (LiAlSi3O8, NaAlSi3O8, NaBSi3O8, and NaFeSi3O8). Such a comparison will provide further insight on the complex relationship between the average chemical ordering and topology of glass on crystallization.

AbstractThe results of x-ray diffraction, resistivity and magnetization measurements of Ag/Cr metallic superlattices are presented. Dramatic changes in the interplanar distances of Ag and Cr were found as a function of the number of Cr monolayers in a period. The resistivities of the superlattices increased as the composition of Cr increased. Magnetization measurements show that the superlattice [Ag(10ML)/Cr(2ML)] exibits a maximum magnetic susceptibility.
