Recent Progress in the thermodynamics of ferrotoroidic materials

Antoni Planes, Teresa Castan, Avadh Saxena

Recent theoretical and experimental progress on the study of ferrotoroidic materials is reviewed. The basic field equations are first described and then the expressions for magneti…

Thermodynamics of Ferrotoroidic Materials: Toroidocaloric Effect

Teresa Castan, Antoni Planes, Avadh Saxena

The three primary ferroics, namely ferromagnets, ferroelectrics and ferroelastics exhibit corresponding large (or even giant) magnetocaloric,electrocaloric and elastocaloric effect…

A new paradigm for modulated phases in multi-stage structural transformations

T. Castan, A. Planes, A. Saxena

For multi-stage, displacive structural transitions we present a general framework that accounts for various intermediate modulated phases, elastic constant, phonon and related ther…

Magnetic phase separation in ordered alloys

Jordi Marcos, Eduard Vives, Teresa Castan

We present a lattice model to study the equilibrium phase diagram of ordered alloys with one magnetic component that exhibits a low temperature phase separation between paramagneti…

Development of a tight-binding potential for bcc-Zr. Application to the study of vibrational properties

Marcel Porta, Teresa Castan

We present a tight-binding potential based on the moment expansion of the density of states, which includes up to the fifth moment. The potential is fitted to bcc and hcp Zr and it…

Modeling Premartensitic effects in Ni2MnGa: A Mean Field and Monte Carlo Simulation Study

Teresa Castan, Eduard Vives, Per-Anker Lindgaard

The degenerate Blume-Emery-Griffiths model for martensitic transformations is extended by including both structural and magnetic degrees of freedom in order to elucidate premartens…

Vacancy-assisted domain-growth in asymmetric binary alloys: a Monte Carlo study

Marcel Porta, Eduard Vives, Teresa Castan

A Monte Carlo simulation study of the vacancy-assisted domain-growth in asymmetric binary alloys is presented. The system is modeled using a three-state ABV Hamiltonian which inclu…

Monte Carlo study of the growth of ordered domains in fcc binary alloys

Carlos Frontera, Eduard Vives, Teresa Castán +1

A Monte Carlo study of the late time growth of ordered domains on a fcc binary alloy is presented. The energy of the alloy has been modeled by a nearest neighbor inte…
