Effect of annealing on the martensitic transformation and magnetocaloric effect in Ni{sub 44.1}Mn{sub 44.2}Sn{sub 11.7} ribbons
- National Laboratory of Solid State Microstructures and Department of Physics, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210093 (China)
The Ni{sub 44.1}Mn{sub 44.2}Sn{sub 11.7} ribbons were prepared by melt spinning. A single-phase austenite with L2{sub 1} structure was confirmed in the melt-spun ribbons at room temperature. After the heat treatment, the martensitic transformation temperature increases obviously in the annealed ribbons. This method may be an effective way to tune the characteristic temperatures in the ferromagnetic shape memory alloys. Giant magnetic entropy changes are observed in the annealed ribbons. The peak values at 10 kOe are 32.1 and 20.1 J/kg K, for the ribbons annealed at 1123 and 1173 K, respectively.
