Reversible tuning of magnetocaloric Ni-Mn-Ga-Co films on ferroelectric PMN-PT substrates
Benjamin Schleicher, Robert Niemann, Stefan Schwabe +4
Tuning functional properties of thin caloric films by mechanical stress is currently of high interest. In particular, a controllable magnetisation or transition temperature is desi…
Role of twin and anti-phase defects in MnAl permanent magnets
Simon Bance, Florian Bittner, Thomas G. Woodcock +2
We quantify and explain the effects of both anti-phase boundaries and twin defects in as-transformed -MnAl by carrying out micromagnetic simulations based closely on the results…
Nucleation and growth of hierarchical martensite in epitaxial shape memory films
Robert Niemann, Anja Backen, Sandra Kauffmann-Weiss +7
Shape memory alloys often show a complex hierarchical morphology in the martensitic state. To understand the formation of this twin-within-twins microstructure, we examine epitaxia…
Growth, microstructure and thermal transformation behaviour of epitaxial Ni-Ti films
Sandra Kauffmann-Weiss, Sandra Hahn, Carmen Weigelt +3
Epitaxial films have the potential to be used as model systems for fundamental investigations on the martensitic transformation in binary NiTi. In this paper, we discuss growth of…
On the origin of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in strained Fe-Co(-X) films
Ludwig Reichel, Alexander Edström, Darius Pohl +4
Very high magnetic anisotropies have been theoretically predicted for strained Fe-Co(-X) and indeed several experiments on epitaxial thin films seemed to confirm strain induced ani…
Magnetic properties of single nanomagnets: EMCD on FePt nanoparticles
Sebastian Schneider, Darius Pohl, Stefan Löffler +5
Energy-loss magnetic chiral dichroism (EMCD) allows for the quantification of magnetic properties of materials at the nanometer scale. It is shown that with the support of simulati…
