Magnetic properties of Ni2.18Mn0.82Ga Heusler alloys with a coupled magnetostructural transition
arXiv:cond-mat/0209574 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.65.092410
Abstract
Polycrystalline Ni2.18Mn0.82Ga Heusler alloys with a coupled magnetostructural transition are studied by differential scanning calorimetry, magnetic and resistivity measurements. Coupling of the magnetic and structural subsystems results in unusual magnetic features of the alloy. These uncommon magnetic properties of Ni2.18Mn0.82Ga are attributed to the first-order structural transition from a tetragonal ferromagnetic to a cubic paramagnetic phase.
