Magnetic phase transition in (Fe,Mn)65Ni35 alloys

Magnetization measurements on the Fe₆₀Mn₅Ni₃₅ and Fe₅₀Mn₁₅Ni₃₅ alloy samples were carried out in the temperature range 80T300 K and in magnetic fields up to 8 kOe. The Fe₆₀Mn₅Ni₃₅ was found to order ferromagnetically with a Curie temperature, T_c, above 300 K. From the temperature dependence of the spontaneous magnetization, M_s, it was concluded that the magnetic behavior of Fe₆₀Mn₅Ni₃₅ follows Wohlfarth theory of weak itinerant ferromagnet. The Fe₅₀Mn₁₅Ni₃₅ sample exhibits a magnetic phase transition from ferromagnetism to paramagnetism at T_c=242 K. The critical amplitudes and critical exponents (β, γ and δ) have been determined by using Arrott plots, Kouvel–Fisher method and scaling plots of the reduced magnetization and reduced magnetic field. The values of β, γ and δ are discussed and compared with the results obtained for various theoretical models and also with the experimentally determined values for related systems obtained by others.     

Magnetic hardening in Cu-Mn-Al alloys

The magnetic and structural properties of Cu₄₂Mn₂₅Al₃₃ and Cu₄₄Mn₂₅Al₃₁ alloys have been examined in as-cast and heat-treated samples. Magnetic hardening was achieved by heat treating the as-cast samples at 300°C, where they developed two finely dispersed phases identified as the ferromagnetic Heusler phase and the nonmagnetic γCu-Al phase. A maximum coercive field of 8 kOe was obtained in a heat-treated Cu₄₄Mn₂₅Al₃₁ sample. Single domain particle behavior is suggested to explained the observed magnetic hysteresis.     

Magnetostriction and spin reorientation in ferromagnetic Laves phase Pr(Ga_xFe_(1-x))_(1.9) compounds

The magnetostriction, magnetization, and spin reorientation properties in Pr(Ga_xFe_(1-x))_(1.9) alloys have been investigated by high-precision x-ray diffraction(XRD) step scanning, magnetization, and Mo¨ssbauer spectra measurements. Ga substitution reduces the magnetostriction(λ_(||)) with magnetic field H ≥ 8 kOe(1 Oe = 1.33322×10~2 Pa), but it also increases the λ|| value when H ≤ 8 kOe at 5 K. Spin-reorientations(SR) are observed in all the alloys investigated, as determined by the step scanned XRD, Mo¨ssbauer spectra, and the abnormal temperature dependence of magnetization. An increase of the spin reorientation temperature(T_(SR)) due to Ga substitution is found in the phase diagram, which is different from the decrease one in many R(T_x Fe_(1-x))_(1.9)(T = Co, Al, Mn) alloys. The present work provides a method to control the easy magnetization direction(EMD) or T_(SR) for developing an anisotropic compensation system.     

Magneto-optical and magnetic properties of some solid solutions of C1b-Heusler compounds

The large Kerr effect in PtMnSb has been ascribed to details of its unusual band structure. Substitution of atoms will modify the band structure and consequently alter the Kerr effect. In the present investigation we have determined the magneto-optical properties at room temperature in the energy range 0.5–5 eV of several solid solutions of C1_b−Heusler compounds, comprising the solid solution series Pt_1−xNi_xMnSb, Pt_1−xRh_xMnSb, Ni_1−xCr_xMnSb, Ni_1−xFe_xMnSb and PtMnSb_0.9Sn_0.1. The magnetic and crystallographic properties were determined for the solid solution series Pt_1−xNi_xMnSb, Pt_1−xRh_xMnSb and Ni_1−xCr_xMnSb. Neither of the substitutions leads to a larger Kerr effect than that present in the pure compound. Moreover, it is found that the shape of the spectra does not change significantly. For one case, Ni substituted in PtMnSb, band structure calculations were made for hypothetically ordered compounds. The results agree with the experimental findings that near 1.7 eV magneto-optically active transitions persist on substituting Ni in PtMnSb.     

Effects of crystallographic ordering on the magnetic behaviour of (AgIn)1-zMn2zTe2 and (CuIn)1-zMn2zTe2 alloys

Measurements of magnetic susceptibility in the temperature range 4.2–300 K were made on polycrystalline samples of the (AgIn)_{1 - z}Mn_2zTe₂ and (CuIn)_{1 - z}Mn_2zTe₂ alloys, and the data used to give values of spin-glass transition te mperature T_g and Curie-Weiss paramagnetic temperature θ. For any sample for which the X-ray powder photograph indicated an apparently single phase condition, either zinc-blende or chalcopyrite, the susceptibility data could show up to three separate T_g values. These different magnetic conditions are attributed to crystallographic ordering of the Mn ions on the chalcopyrite and zinc-blende lattices, the three observed T_g values corresponding to disordered zinc-blende, ordered zinc-blende and ordered chalcopyrite. The value of θ obtained from the 1/χ vs. T plot is shown to be a weighted mean of the separate values of θ for the phases present. The relative sizes of the T_g peaks and the values of θ for any given sample gives an indication of the amount of each phase present. These amounts were varied by using different methods of heat treatment and it was shown that the magnetic behaviour was consistent with the T(z) phase diagram for the two alloy systems.     

Magnetic and Magneto-optical properties of Heusler alloys of the type Ni3-xMnxSn

The crystallographic, magnetic and magneto-optical properties of Heusler compounds of the type Ni_3-xMn_xSn were investigated. The thermal expansion behaviour of a limited number of these compounds was also studied. The cubic L2₁ structure was found to exist in the range 0.6 x 2.2. With increasing x the saturation moment first increases, then decreases again. The main peak in the Kerr rotation spectra measured in the energy range 0.5-4.5 eV shows a similar trend. The Curie temperature and the lattice constant increase with x, both quantities showing a discontinuity near x = 1. All these features are discussed in terms of relative site occupancies of the Mn atoms at the tetrahedral and octahedral sites in the L2₁ structure.     

Ferromagnetic Zr1−xMnxCo2 laves phase compounds

Structure and magnetic properties of the Zr_1−xMn_xCo_2+δ alloys were studied for 0 x <0.7, δ=0, 0.45. The cubic C15 Laves phase structure shows Mn solubility up to x≈0.4. The other Laves phase with the hexagonal C36 structure found for x0.5 apparently has a small region of Mn solubility in the vicinity of Zr_0.4Mn_0.6Co₂. Though the parent Mn-free compounds are known to be paramagnetic, the Mn-substituted alloys show ferromagnetic behavior with the Curie temperatures up to 625 K and the room-temperature saturation magnetization of about 100 emu/g. The onset of ferromagnetism with the Mn substitution for Zr may be caused by polarization of itinerant 3d electrons, like it was earlier supposed for the off-stoichiometric ZrCo_2+δ. The universal composition dependencies of the intrinsic magnetic properties for different δ can be obtained, if plotted against the amount of zirconium atoms missing in its sublattice. The room-temperature anisotropy with the noticeable anisotropy field of 24 kOe and the 1 1 0 easy magnetization direction laying in a basal plane was found in the hexagonal Zr_0.5Mn_0.5Co₂.     

Quenching of spin fluctuations by high magnetic fields

The quenching of spin fluctuations by magnetic fields has been observed in heat capacity and electrical resistivity measurements at low temperatures for a series of highly exchange enhanced magnetic materials. These include: the weak itinerant electron ferromagnets Sc₃In, Zr_1−xHf_xZn₂ (0 x 0.2) and Ni₃Al; the strong Pauli paramagnets RCo₂ (R = Sc, Y and Lu), TiBe₂ and Pd_1−xNi_x (0 x 0.01); and the heavy fermion systems CeSn₃, CeSi_x (x ≈ 1.85) an d UAl₂. The reported quenching of spin fluctuations in scandium and palladium by magnetic fields is reviewed, and it appears that the initial observations and conclusions are incorrect, and that fields greater than 10 and 40 T, respectively, will be necessary to quench spin fluctuations in these metals. The behaviors of these spin fluctuators have been grouped into six classes.
