NaZn13型结构LaFe13-xAlxCy化合物的磁熵变与磁相变的研究

研究了NaZn13型结构LaFe13-xAlxC0.1(x=1.6,1.8)间隙化合物的磁制冷能力和磁相变.利用麦克斯韦关系式计算得到,高Al含量LaFe13-xAlx碳化物的最大磁熵变值|ΔS|m低于低Al含量碳化物的最大磁熵变值.随Al含量的增加,化合物的磁熵变峰展宽,但由于磁熵变大幅降低,衡量磁制冷能力的q值随之降低.基于朗道相变原理,考虑到自旋涨落的影响,磁自由能可以展开到磁化强度的6次方项,材料的相变类型由磁化强度的4次方项系数a3(T)的符号来进行判断.随着Al含量的增加,研究的碳化物相变由弱的一级相变转为二级相变.

一级磁结构相变材料Mn0.6Fe0.4NiSi0.5Ge0.5和Ni50Mn34Co2Sn14的磁热效应与磁场的线性相关性

磁熵变（△S_M）与磁场（μ₀H）的相关性已在很多二级相变材料中被研究并报道,但一级相变材料的磁热效应与磁场相关性还少有报道.本文在具有一级磁结构相变的Mn_0.6Fe_0.4NiSi_0.5Ge_0.5材料中研究发现△S_M与μ₀H存在线性相关性,并通过麦克斯韦关系式的数值分析详细讨论了这一线性相关性的来源.同时,进一步发现在低磁场时,△S_M近似正比于μ₀H的平方.该线性相关性同样在一级磁结构相变Ni₅₀Mn₃₄Co₂Sn₁₄材料中得到了印证.但由于一级磁弹相变LaFe_11.7Si_1.3材料相变温度具有更强的磁场依赖性,不具有△S_M的线性相关性,因此,本研究表明,当磁结构相变材料的相变温度具有弱磁场依赖性时,△S_M与μ₀H具有线性相关性.进而,在磁场未达到相变饱和磁场以下,利用△S_M与μ₀H的线性相关性可以有效推测更高磁场下的△S_M.

Magnetic entropy change and magnetic phase transition of LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx （x=0-0.8） compounds

The unit cell volume and phase transition temperature of LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx compounds have been studied. The magnetic entropy change, refrigerant capacity and the type of magnetic phase transition are investigated in detail for LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx with x=0.1, All the LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx （x=0-0.8） compounds have the cubic NaZn13-type structure. The addition of carbon atoms brings about a considerable increase in the lattice parameter. The bulk expansion results in the change of phase transition temperature （Tc）, Tc increases from 187K to 269 K with x varying from 0.1 to 0.8, Meanwhile an increase in the lattice parameter can also cause a change of the magnetic ground state from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic. Large magnetic entropy change IASI is found over a large temperature range around Tc and the refrigerant capacity is about 322J/kg for LaFe11.4Al1.6C0.1. The magnetic phase transition belongs in weakly first-order one for x=0.1.     

Magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects in NaZn13-type La（Fe, Al）13-based compounds

In this article,our recent progress concerning the effects of atomic substitution,magnetic field,and temperature on the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of the LaFe13-xAlx compounds are reviewed.With an increase of the aluminum content,the compounds exhibit successively an antiferromagnetic(AFM) state,a ferromagnetic(FM) state,and a mictomagnetic state.Furthermore,the AFM coupling of LaFe 13-xAlx can be converted to an FM one by substituting Si for Al,Co for Fe,and magnetic rare-earth R for La,or introducing interstitial C or H atoms.However,low doping levels lead to FM clusters embedded in an AFM matrix,and the resultant compounds can undergo,under appropriate applied fields,first an AFM-FM and then an FM-AFM phase transition while heated,with significant magnetic relaxation in the vicinity of the transition temperature.The Curie temperature of LaFe13-xAlx can be shifted to room temperature by choosing appropriate contents of Co,C,or H,and a strong magnetocaloric effect can be obtained around the transition temperature.For example,for the LaFe 11.5Al1.5C0.2H1.0 compound,the maximal entropy change reaches 13.8 J·kg-1 ·K-1 for a field change of 0-5 T,occurring around room temperature.It is 42% higher than that of Gd,and therefore,this compound is a promising room-temperature magnetic refrigerant.     

The studies of high-temperature and short-time annealing,phase transition process,and magnetic property for LaFe11.7Si1.3 compound

The high-temperature phase transition is analyzed according to the DSC of as-cast LaFe_11.7 Si_1.3 compound and the X-ray patterns of LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compounds prepared by high-temperature and short-time annealing. Large amount of 1:13 phase begins to appear in LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compound annealed near the melting point of LaFeSi phase (about 1422?K). When the annealing temperature is close to the temperature of peritectic reaction (about 1497?K), the speed of 1:13 phase formation is the fastest. The phase relation and microstructure of the LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compounds annealed at 1523?K (5?h), 1373?K (2?h)?+?1523?K (5?h), and 1523?K (7?h) +1373?K (2?h) show that longer time annealing near peritectic reaction is helpful to decrease the impurity phases. For studying the influence of different high-temperature and short-time annealing on magnetic property, the Curie temperature, thermal, and magnetic hystereses, and the magnetocaloric effect of LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compound annealed at three different temperatures are also investigated. Three compounds all keep the first order of magnetic transition behavior. The maximal magnetic entropy change ΔS_M (T, H) of the samples is 12.9, 16.04, and 23.8?J?kg^?1?K^?1 under a magnetic field of 0–2?T, respectively.

The study of phase,microstructure, and magnetocaloric properties in LaFe11.6*xSi1.4B0.1 alloys

The effect of Fe on the phase and magnetocaloric property of LaFe_11.6*xSi_1.4B_0.1 alloys with x = 1.0–1.4 have been studied. The results show that the excess of Fe will make the α-Fe phases increase, but the easy corrosion LaFeSi phase reduces in LaFe_11.6*xSi_1.4B_0.1 alloys. All LaFe_11.6*xSi_1.4B_0.1 alloys keep the first-order magnetic phase transition. The saturation magnetizations of LaFe_11.6*xSi_1.4B_0.1 alloys with x > 1 are much higher than LaFe_11.6Si_1.4B_0.1 alloy under 2T magnetic field. This results in the maximum isothermal magnetic entropy changes, and the relative cooling power of LaFe_11.6*xSi_1.4B_0.1 alloys is bigger than for LaFe_11.6Si_1.4B_0.1 alloys.     

Effects of Fe－Fe bond length change in NaZn13-type intermetallic compounds on magnetic properties and magnetic entropy change

In this paper the effects of Fe－Fe bond length change on magnetic properties and magnetic entropy change have been investigated on LaFe_{12.4-x}Si_xCo_{0.6} and LaFe_{12.3-x}Al_xCo_{0.7} intermetallic compounds. According to the analyses of Fe－Fe bond length change, the variation of Curie temperature and the unusual magnetic phase transition which results in the large magnetic entropy change were explained. The effects of the substitution of Co and Si for Fe on magnetic entropy change and field-induced itinerant-electron metamagnetic transition in LaFe_{12.4-x}Si_xCo_{0.6} compounds were also studied and the considerable magnetic entropy change has been achieved.     

Large magnetic entropy change near room temperature in the LaFe11.5Si1.5H1.3 interstitial compound

The LaFe_11.5Si_1.5H_1.3 interstitial compound has been prepared. Its Curie temperature T_C (288 K) has been adjusted to around room temperature, and the maximal magnetic entropy change (|ΔS|～17.0 J·kg^-1·K^-1 at T_C) is larger than that of Gd (|ΔS|～9.8 J·kg^-1·K^-1 at T_C=293 K) by ～73.5% under a magnetic change from 0 to 5 T. The origin of the large magnetic entropy change is attributed to the first-order field-induced itinerant-electron metamagnetic transition. Moreover, the magnetic hysteresis of LaFe_11.5Si_1.5H_1.3 under the increase and decrease of the field is very small, which is favourable to magnetic refrigeration application. The present study suggests that the LaFe_11.5Si_1.5H_1.3 compound is a promising candidate as a room-temperature magnetic refrigerant.     

Magnetoresistances and magnetic entropy changes associated with negative lattice expansions in NaZn13-type compounds LaFeCoSi

Magnetoresistances and magnetic entropy changes in NaZn13-type compounds La（Fel-xCox）11.9Si1.1 （x=0.04, 0.06, and 0.08） with Curie temperatures of 243 K, 274 K, and 301 K, respectively, are studied. The ferromagnetic ordering is accompanied by a negative lattice expansion. Large magnetic entropy changes in a wide temperature range from ～230 K to ～320 K are achieved. Raising Co content increases the Curie temperature but weakens the magnetovolume effect, thereby causing a decrease in magnetic entropy change. These materials exhibit a metallic character below Tc, whereas the electrical resistance decreases abruptly and then recovers the metal-like behaviour above Tc. Application of a magnetic field retains the transitions via increasing the ferromagnetic ordering temperature. An isothermal increase in magnetic field leads to an increase in electrical resistance at temperatures near but above Tc, which is a consequence of the field-induced metamagnetic transition from a paramagnetic state to a ferromagnetic state.     

Pressure effect on the magnetic phase diagram of Hf1-xTaxFe2 alloys

Abstract

The lattice constants of Hf_1-xTa_xFe₂ with C14 structure were measured at room temperature under pressure up to 5 GPa. The magnetic phase diagram obtained as a function of pressure was compared with that obtained as a function of Ta concentration x. It is shown that changes in lattice constants by applying pressure and /or by substituting Ta for Hf affect remarkably the magnetic phase stability, which is consistent qualitatively with a recent theoretical prediction based on the local spin density approximation.
