采用粉末XRD和振动样品磁强计研究了Gd5Si1.75Ge1.75Sn0.5合金的结构、磁相变和低场变化下的磁熵变。磁性测量结果表明,Gd5Si1.75Ge1.75Sn0.5合金的磁化强度在居里温度附近发生突变,具有一级相变的典型特征,室温具有Gd5Si2Ge2型单斜结构;合金低场磁热效应非常明显,1.8T磁场变化下,在其居里温度272K附近的最大磁熵变为16.7J.kg-1.K-1。用成本低廉的Sn取代Gd5Si2Ge2中部分Si和Ge后,Gd5Si1.75Ge1.75Sn0.5在低磁场变化下的磁熵变比金属Gd大得多并略高于Gd5Si2Ge2。     

CeFe10.5Si2.5金属间化合物晶体结构、磁性和磁熵变特性研究

通过X射线衍射和磁性测量等手段对金属间化合物CeFe10.5Si2.5的晶体结构、磁性以及磁熵变进行了研究. 结果表明,经过对铸态样品进行12 h退火所得的金属间化合物CeFe10.5Si2.5晶体为单相立方NaZn13型结构; 在1.5 T外磁场下居里温度TC～206 K附近的最大等温磁熵变为10.7 J·kg-1·K-1,并随着外磁场的增大而迅速增大; 从Arrott曲线中可以看出,在此化合物中没有明显的巡游电子变磁转变特性,但从低磁场下的热磁曲线可知,磁化强度在居里温度处发生陡峭的变化,这应该是该化合物获得大磁熵变的原因.

Gd0．6DY0．4Co2-xAlx系合金磁热性能的研究

用量子磁强仪对Cd0.6Dy0.4Co2-xAlx(x=0,0.1)系合金的居里温度、磁相变、磁熵变等磁性质进行了研究.结果表明:该系合金居里温度随着X量的引入而增加;热处理后,X=0,0.1合金由双相晶体结构基本变为单相晶体结构,磁熵变比铸态合金分别提高53.2%和33.1%,居里温度基本不变.铝元素的加入并没有改变合金的相变类型,合金仍保持二级相变.     

一级相变磁制冷材料LaFe_(11.6)Si_(1.4)合金的磁相变特性系统分析

以La Fe11.6Si1.4合金为研究对象,系统分析了该一级相变材料的居里温度(TC)、磁场诱导磁相变的临界磁场(HC)、磁化率(χ)、磁滞、磁熵变(ΔS)、制冷能力(RCP)等磁性特性。结果表明:温度诱导磁相变的居里温度和磁场诱导磁相变的临界磁场均随磁场呈线性增加,ΔTC和ΔH随磁场和温度的变化率的值分别为4.1 K·T-1和0.2 T·K-1。当合金处于纯铁磁态和顺磁态时熵变磁熵变几乎为零,但磁场诱导的磁相变,会导致某一定温度下合金磁熵变有一个突变。但合金最大熵变并不是随磁场的增加而线性增加,当磁场达到一定值后随磁场增加其值基本没有变化。不同模型计算的制冷能力均随磁场的增加而呈线性增加。在两相共存态中,同一温度下两种不同铁磁的磁化率存在差异,即因磁场诱导的铁磁态相与合金中本身的铁磁态相的磁化率存在差异,且前者小于后者,这种物理现象对深入研究温度诱导和磁场诱导磁相变的差异有一定的参考价值。     

(Gd1-xREx)5Si4(RE=Dy, Ho)系列材料磁熵变研究

LaFe11.6Si1.4C0.5间隙化合物的磁性、磁相变和磁熵变

使用了约80％的廉价铁原料，制备了LaFe11．6Sil．4C0．5间隙化合物。研究表明：该间隙化合物仍保持了LaFe11．6Sil．4的NaZnl3立方晶体结构，间隙C原子的引入导致晶格膨胀了约0．35％，居里点提高了约50K；同时，仍然保持大的磁熵变，在0-2T磁场变化下，磁熵变达到Gd的2倍以上，大磁熵变源于磁场诱发的巡游电子变磁相变。该间隙化合物具有大磁熵变。     

巡游电子系化合物La0.8Ce0.2(Fe1-xCox)11.4Si1.6的磁热效应

对制备的化合物La0.8Ce0.2(Fe1-xCox)11.4Si1.6(x=0.02,0.04,0.06)的相组成、巡游电子变磁转变(IEMT)特性和磁热效应(MCE)进行了研究。粉末X射线衍射结果表明,经1373 K真空退火处理7 d后,化合物La0.8Ce0.2(Fe1-xCox)11.4Si1.6(x=0.02,0.04,0.06)均为单相立方NaZn13型晶体结构。随着Co含量由x=0.02增加到x=0.06,样品的居里温度TC由207 K上升到277 K。在0~1.5 T磁场变化下,x=0.02,0.04,0.06时样品的最大磁熵变|ΔSM(T)|分别为40.17,12.60和7.65 J.kg-1.K-1,可见该化合物有巨大的磁熵变,而且随Co含量的增加最大磁熵变迅速减小。该化合物的巨大磁熵变来源于TC处的一级相变,以及在TC以上由磁场诱导IEMT,但由于Co原子对Fe原子的替代能够抑制变磁转变的发生,因此该系化合物最大磁熵变随Co含量的增加迅速减小。     

快淬法制备La_(0.8)Ce_(0.2)Fe_(11.4)Si_(1.6)合金的磁熵变研究

为了探求La系磁熵变材料的短时退火工艺,利用两种方法制备了磁制冷材料La0.8Ce0.2Fe11.4Si1.6合金,其一为将电弧熔炼合金退火5天(样品A),其二为将合金利用铜模铸造方法得到快淬样品,再退火2 h(样品B)。X射线衍射表明,样品A和B主相为NaZn13相结构。通过对比发现,尽管样品A的最大磁熵变值大于样品B的,但样品B在制冷温区和制冷能力方面优于样品A。因此,快淬加短时间热处理可以大大节省时间和能量,是一种制备La0.8Ce0.2Fe11.4Si1.6磁制冷材料的高效且性能优越的方法。     

An application of the "coloring problem": structure-composition-bonding relationships in the magnetocaloric materials LaFe13-xSix

The LaFe(13)-(x)Si(x) (1.0 < or = x < or = 5.0) series is studied experimentally and theoretically to gain possible understanding for the relationships among geometrical structure, chemical composition, magnetic behavior, and physical properties as related to the magnetocaloric effect in these compounds. As the Si concentration increases, LaFe(13)-(x)Si(x) exhibits a structural transformation from the cubic NaZn(13) structure type to a tetragonal derivative due primarily to preferential ordering of Fe and Si atoms. At room temperature, LaFe(13)-(x)Si(x) crystallize in the cubic structure for the range 1 < or = x < or = 2.6 and in the tetragonal for 3.2 < or = x < or = 5. In the range 2.6 < or = x < or = 3.2, it shows a two-phase mixture. Temperature-dependent single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments near the corresponding Curie temperatures were performed on the room-temperature cubic phases to examine the origin of the large isothermal magnetic entropy changes. A thorough statistical and structural analysis of the data indicates that the noncentrosymmetric F43c space group provides a more adequate atomic arrangement than the centrosymmetric Fm3c space group. This change in space group leads to divergence for specific sets of Fe-Fe distances below the Curie temperature that arises from tilting of Fe-centered [Fe(12)-(x)Si(x)] icosahedra. The noncentrosymmetric space group also agrees with the predominance of icosahedral clusters lacking local inversion symmetry. From extended Hückel and tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital (TB-LMTO) electronic structure calculations on various model structures, the F43c model is more energetically favorable than the Fm3c model. Extended Hückel calculations on various icosahedral [Fe(12)-(n)Si(n)] (n = 1-5) clusters and TB-LMTO calculations on "LaFe(13)," LaFe(11)Si(2), and LaFe(9)Si(4) have also been carried out to study the effects of a main group element (Si) on stabilizing the cubic NaZn(13)-type structure, influencing the transformation between cubic and tetragonal symmetries, and to study relationships among their chemical bonding and magnetic properties.     

硼和铟掺杂对Fe81Ga19快淬薄带的微结构、磁致伸缩性能及磁性的影响

通过甩带快淬法制备三元合金（Fe_0.81Ga_0.19）_100-xB_x （Fe-Ga-B）和（Fe_0.81Ga_0.19）_100-xIn_x （Fe-Ga-In）薄带样品,并对Fe-Ga-B合金样品进行热处理。通过高分辨X射线衍射（HRXRD）和扩展X射线吸收精细结构谱（EXAFS）技术表征薄带的微观结构,利用振动样品磁强计和标准电阻应变仪测量了样品的磁性及饱和磁致伸缩系数。研究表明,有序的L1₂相降低了（Fe_0.81Ga_0.19）₉₈B₂样品的磁致伸缩系数。B原子添加形成的Fe₂B相和modified-DO₃相有利于提高Fe-Ga合金的磁致伸缩系数。但Fe₂B相的饱和磁化强度小于A₂相,饱和磁场却远大于A₂相,因此随着B含量的增加,Fe-Ga-B薄带的饱和磁化强度逐渐减小,矫顽力逐渐增加。合金中形成的非磁性富In相使得In掺杂Fe-Ga-In合金的磁致伸缩系数和饱和磁化强度均减小。非磁性富In相使晶格产生畸变,减弱了磁弹性效应,并且抑制了磁畴的运动,从而明显地减小了Fe-Ga带材样品的磁致伸缩系数以及饱和磁化强度,提高了Fe-Ga合金的矫顽力。     

First-order magnetic phase transition of LaFe11.6Si1.4C0.2studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy

Summary Temperature induced magnetic phase transition in the interstitial compound LaFe_11.6Si_1.4C_0.2 was studied by zero-field M?ssbauer spectroscopy. A paramagnetic doublet and a magnetically split sextet co-existed in the zero-field spectra in the temperature region of 213-218 K, and a thermal hysteresis was observed in the heating and cooling cycles. The spectra indicate that the magnetic phase transition induced by temperature is of first order for this sample.     

A new method for studying crystallization of amorphous alloys

Experiments on the crystallization of amorphous Fe?Si?B alloys were carried out by thermogravimetric analysis (TG). This new method gives us some important information about the magnetic phase transformation of amorphous alloys, especially the magnetic volume change in crystallization beside the energy change obtained by the traditional DSC and DTA methods. Crystallization activation energies of Fe?Si?B amorphous alloy are calculated from both TG and DTA curves. The experiment also showed that the addition of Nb, Cu and Mo would influence the crystallization transition temperature of amorphous Fe?Si?B alloys greatly.

Alkyl group as entropy reservoir in an MMX chain complex, Pt2(n-PenCS2)4I

Heat capacity of halogen-bridged one-dimensional binuclear metal complex (so-called MMX chain) having four n-pentyl groups, Pt2(n-PenCS2)4I, was measured by adiabatic calorimetry. A first-order phase transition was observed at 207.4 K when measurement was made after cooling from room temperature. The enthalpy and entropy of transition were determined to be 10.19 kJ mol(-1) and 49.1 J K(-1) mol(-1), respectively. A monotropic phase transition was observed at 324 K on heating, and the entropy of transition was essentially null. The sample once heated above 324 K never returned to the initial phase at room temperature and underwent a higher-order phase transition at 173 K and a first-order phase transition at 220.5 K. The enthalpy and entropy of the first-order phase transition were estimated to be 11.6 kJ mol(-1) and 52.4 J K(-1) mol(-1), respectively. The magnitude of the entropy gain at the phase transition from the initial room-temperature phase to the high-temperature phase at 324 K shows that in Pt2(n-PenCS2)4I a large amount of entropy reserved in alkyl chain is transferred to dithiocarboxylato groups upon the phase transition, as in the cases of Pt2(n-PrCS2)4I and Pt2(n-BuCS2)4I.     

Fe基非晶和纳米晶合金晶化及电化学腐蚀行为

应用单辊甩带法制备非晶态Fe78Si13B9和Fe73.5Si13.5B9Nb3Cu1薄带,并以非晶晶化退火法制备出纳米晶Fe73.5Si13.5B9Nb3Cu1薄带.利用X射线衍射(XRD)仪和示差扫描量热计(DSC)对该非晶薄带的非晶特性及其晶化过程进行了研究.并用电化学极化曲线的方法和电化学阻抗技术研究了非晶态Fe78Si13B9和纳米晶Fe73.5Si13.5B9Nb3Cu1合金在1mol/LNaOH溶液里的电化学腐蚀行为,用SEM对极化测试后的试样形貌进行了观察;同时还研究了不同的热处理温度对材料结构及在1mol/LNaOH溶液里耐腐蚀性能的影响.结果表明,该非晶薄带的晶化过程分为两步;纳米晶比非晶合金的耐腐蚀性要好;且随着热处理温度的升高,非晶和纳米晶的耐腐蚀性能都得到提高.     

不同工艺和原料对Mn_(1.2)Fe_(0.8)P_(0.48)Si_(0.52)化合物磁热效应的影响

用不同的工艺和原料制备了3个名义成分相同的Mn1.2Fe0.8P0.48S i0.52化合物。X射线衍射结果表明,3个化合物均为Fe2P型六角结构(空间群为P-62m),并且存在少量的(Fe,Mn)3S i相。通过磁性测量发现,3个样品的居里温度有所不同,但是都在室温附近(270~290 K)。以Fe2P为原料制备的化合物具有较大的磁熵变,在1.5 T的磁场变化下其最大磁熵变为13.6 J.(kg.K)-1。以行星样品球磨机制备的化合物具有较小的热滞,最小热滞为6.7 K。这些表明不同的制备工艺和原料对化合物的居里温度、热滞和磁熵变都具有一定的影响。同时低成本的原料、简单的制备工艺、较小的热滞和较大的磁熵变使得Mn1.2Fe0.8P0.48S i0.52化合物成为一种理想的室温磁致冷候选材料。     

Magnetic transitions in the Gd5Si4−xPx (x = 0.5, 0.75, 1.25) phases. Magnetocaloric effect of the Gd5Si2.75P1.25 phase

The Gd₅Si_2.75P_1.25 phase with all interslab Si/P–Si/P dimers broken (Sm₅Ge₄-type structure) undergoes a ferromagnetic transition at 184 K. For this phase, the magnetocaloric effect in terms of the magnetic entropy change, ΔS, reaches the maximum value of −7.8 J/kg K at 177 K. Absence of a temperature-dependant structural transition, as confirmed by the low-temperature single crystal diffraction studies, together with the moderate value of ΔS points to the presence of a conventional magnetocaloric effect. Gd₅Si_3.5P_0.5 and Gd₅Si_3.25P_0.75, which are composites of the Gd₅Si₄- (all Si/P–Si/P dimers intact) and Sm₅Ge₄-type phases, possess two magnetic transitions associated with the two-phases. Introduction of P into Gd₅Si₄ lowers the Curie temperature from 336 K to 332 K in Gd₅Si_3.25P_0.75.
