Structural,magnetic properties,and electronic structure of hexagonal FeCoSn compound

The structural, magnetic properties, and electronic structures of hexagonal Fe Co Sn compounds with as-annealed bulk and ribbon states were investigated by x-ray powder diffraction(XRD), differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), transmission electron microscope(TEM), scanning electron microscope(SEM), magnetic measurements, and first-principles calculations. Results indicate that both states of FeCoSn show an Ni_2In-type hexagonal structure with a small amount of FeCo-rich secondary phase. The Curie temperatures are located at 257 K and 229 K, respectively. The corresponding magnetizations are 2.57 μB/f.u. and 2.94 μB/f.u. at 5 K with a field of 50 kOe(1 Oe = 79.5775 A·m~(-1)). The orbital hybridizations between 3 d elements are analyzed from the distribution of density of states(DOS), showing that Fe atoms carry the main magnetic moments and determine the electronic structure around Fermi level. A peak of DOS at Fermi level accounts for the presence of the FeCo-rich secondary phase. The Ni_2In-type hexagonal FeCoSn compound can be used during the isostructural alloying for tuning phase transitions.     

Heusler合金Fe2CrGa的磁性与结构

采用KKR-CPA-LDA方法研究了不同混乱占位时Fe₂CrGa合金基态的电子结构和磁结构. 基态能量表明Fe₂CrGa合金更倾向于形成Hg₂CuTi型有序结构,而不是L2₁结构. 能态密度(DOS)分析进一步揭示受晶体场影响的磁性原子内部交换作用是使Fe₂CrGa合金形成 Hg₂CuTi型有序结构的主要原因.测量了不同热处理所得Fe₂CrGa合金的居里温度和分子磁矩, 发现原子占位有序化可以在137K温度范围内调控合金的居里温度.分子磁矩随有序化占位也有相应变化, 分布在2.28μ_B/f.u.—2.48μ_B/f.u.之间.理论计算和实验对比可证明Fe₂CrGa合金是Hg₂CuTi型Heusler合金.
