Abstract: | In the present work the contributions of the temperature-dependent (i) crystal lattice parameters (related to the magnetic
anisotropy energy), (ii) Young's modulus, (iii) saturation magnetization and (iv) thermal fluctuations of the microstress
to the temperature dependence of the magnetic field induced strain (MFIS) in Ni-Mn-Ga martensite are considered in the framework
of a statistical model. Both individual and cooperative effects of these factors on the achievable MFIS value and on the characteristic
values of the magnetic fields, which trigger and saturate MFIS, are estimated. It is shown that all the factors affect both
the achievable MFIS value and characteristic fields under the real experimental conditions, and none of them can be neglected
in the quantitative theoretical analysis of the experimental strain-field dependencies obtained for different temperature
values. In addition, the influence of specimen shape on the characteristic fields is illustrated for different temperature
values. For the available experimental dependencies (i)–(iii) and the reasonable set of model parameters the switching magnetic
field proved to be equal to 160 kA/m when the temperature was by 15 K below the martensite start temperature and raised to
320 kA/m when the temperature was by 45 K below the martensite start temperature. Obtained results agree with the experimental
data reported by O. Heczko and L. Straka, in J. Appl. Phys. 94, 7139 (2003). |
