广泛的测量磁化等温线和磁场和温度依赖的交流磁化率Ni-Mn-Ga合金的总结。这些数据的详细分析提供了一个定量评估的磁相变在这个系统中,通过建立一阶磁/马氏体结构转变和交叉线在连续的磁转变的变磁边界。在Ni55.2Mn18.6Ga26.2的“调谐”成分下,获得了ΔSm=−20.4× 104 ergsg − 1 K −1(−20.4Jkg− 1 K −1)的巨磁热效应(在317 K,50 kOe(5 T)磁场下),这是由于同时表现出一阶和二阶特性的两个跃迁的本质重合。
A summary of extensive measurements of magnetisation isotherms and of the field- and temperature-dependent AC susceptibility for Ni–Mn–Ga alloys is presented. Detailed analysis of these data provide a quantitative appraisal of the magnetic phase transitions in this system through the establishment of metamagnetic boundaries at first-order magnetic/martensitic structural transitions and crossover lines at continuous magnetic transitions. At the “tuned” composition Ni55.2Mn18.6Ga26.2a giant magnetocaloric effect with ΔSm=−20.4×104ergsg−1K−1(−20.4Jkg−1K−1) (at 317K in a 50kOe (5T) field) is achieved, and this is shown to result from the essential coincidence of two transitions exhibiting both first- and second-order characteristics simultaneously.
