AbstractSome compositions of Ni-Mn-X (X = Ga, In, Sn) ferromagnetic shape memory alloys exhibit a first order magnetostructural phase transition. Magnetic entropy change ΔSm in the vicinity of this transition has been studied by magnetization and heat capacity measurements. Comparison of these results point to a large difference in magnitudes of ΔSm obtained from magnetization and heat capacity data. It is suggested that this discrepancy originates from overestimation of \Delta S_m determined from the magnetization measurements and underestimation of ΔSm obtained from the heat capacity measurements.

AbstractTwo theoretical Monte Carlo models have been presented for description of the positive and negative magnetocaloric effects of Heusler Ni-Mn-X (X = Ga, In) alloys undergoing first order coupled magnetostructural phase transition. For both models all quantities such as temperature dependence of the magnetic contribution to the total specific heat, magnetization and isothermal magnetic entropy change are in qualitative agreement with the available experimental data.

AbstractMagnetic entropy change and refrigerant capacity have been determined for a field change of 20 kOe around the second-order magnetic transition of austenite in as-quenched Ni51.1Mn31.2In17.7 alloy ribbons produced by melt spinning technique. Samples crystallize in a single-phase austenite with the highly ordered L21-type crystal structure and a Curie temperature of 275 K. The material shows a maximum magnetic entropy change of ΔSMmax= - 1.7 Jkg-1K-1, an useful working temperature range of 78 K (δTFWHM) and a refrigerant capacity of RC=132 Jkg-1 (RC= │ΔSMmax│ x δTFWHM). The considerable RC value obtained together with the fabrication via a single-step process make austenitic Ni-Mn-In ribbons of potential interest as magnetic refrigerants for room temperature magnetic refrigeration.

<p>In this work the results of measurements of heat capacity (C<sub>P</sub>) and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in Er(Co<sub>1-</sub><sub>х</sub>Fe<sub>х</sub>)<sub>2</sub> system in the concentration range 0.07 ≤ x ≤ 0.80 are presented. Phase composition was controlled by X-ray difraction analysis. Heat capacity was measured in the temperature range 77-320 K. MCE has been studied within the temperature range 5-670 K in magnetic fields up to 70 kOe. It was found that Fe concentration increase caused the table-like (plateau) MCE temperature dependence for both magnetic entropy change date and direct ∆T-effect measurements independently on Fe concentration. The possible reasons of such behavior are discussed.</p>

We report on a new method for preparation the magnetocaloric alloy Gd5Si4. By mechanical alloying under argonatmosphere and then melting sample by arc furnace, we produced the Gd5Si4 alloy. The structure and magnetothermalproperties of the alloy have been investigated with the help of powder X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements.This compound crystallized in the orthorhombic structure with space group pnma. In X-ray powder diffraction pattern, aminor orthorhombic GdSi2 phase was observed as a second phase. For this compound, the second order phase transitionwas observed. The maximum isothermal magnetic entropy change of the Gd5Si4 compound at 348K was found to be -10J/(kg K) in an applied field of 0.5T.

In this work, Fe80-xMxP13C7 (M = Co, Ni; x = 0, 5 and 10 at.%) bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) were prepared, and the effect of the Co/Ni elements substitution for Fe on the magnetocaloric properties of Fe80P13C7 BMG has been investigated systematically. The Curie temperature (TC) of the present Fe-based BMGs increases with the substitution of Fe by Co/Ni. The magnetic entropy change (ΔSM) of the present Fe-based BMGs increases first and then decreases with the increase of Fe substituted by Co, but monotonically decreases with the increase of Fe substituted by Ni. Among the present Fe-based BMGs, the Fe75Co5P13C7 BMG exhibits the maximum ΔSM value of 5.21 J kg−1 K−1 at an applied field of 5 T, which is the largest value among Fe-based amorphous alloys without any rare earth elements reported so far. The present Fe-based BMGs exhibit the large glass forming ability, tunable TC and enhanced ΔSM value, which are beneficial for magnetic refrigerant materials.

We present a mean-field study on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in RFe10X2, where X=Mo, V, and R=Gd, Tb, Ho, Tm, Dy, Er, Nd for X=V. For X=Mo, R=Dy, Gd, and Nd. The two-sublattice model, involving the 4f (rare earth) and 3d(Fe) sublattices, is used. For both systems, magnetization, magnetic heat capacity, magnetic entropy and isothermal entropy change ∆Sm are calculated for different magnetic fields in the 0-5T range and the temperature range from 0 to 700K. Direct and inverse MCEs are shown to take place in these ferromagnetic/ferrimagnetic compounds. For a field change ∆H=5T, the maximum isothermal magnetic entropy change has been calculated for ferromagnetic NdFe10Mo2 compound to be 6.6 J/K mol at Tc=441 K. Both direct, and inverse MCEs have been found in ferrimagnetic compounds, e.g., for TmFe10V2, with maximum -∆Sm= J/K mol at Tc=521K and ∆Sm=  J/K mol at TN=127 K. Mean-field analysis is suitable for handling the systems we report on. Further study on the lattice and electronic contribution to entropy is planned.

The effect of Fe on the martensitic transitions, magnetic and inverse magnetocaloric effect in Ni47Mn40-xFexIn13 ribbons (x = 1, 2, 3 and 5) has been investigated. All the ribbon compositions under study have shown the presence of austenite phase at room temperature. The variation of martensitic transition with the increase in Fe-content is non-monotonic. The thermal hysteresis of the martensitic transition increased with the increase in Fe-content. The martensitic transitions shifted to lower temperatures in the presence of high magnetic fields. A maximum magnetic entropy change (∆SM) of 50 Jkg-1K-1 has been achieved in the Ni47Mn38Fe2In13 (x = 1) ribbon at 282 K for an applied field of 5 T.
