Large Room Temperature Magnetocaloric Effect in Ni50Mn34(Co,Cu)In15

Article Preview

Abstract:

Effect of Co or Cu slightly introduced in Ni50Mn35In15 on martensitic transformation and magnetocaloric effect was investigated. The small doping of Co can modify exchange interaction between Mn atoms, resulting in the ferromagnetic ordering of the parent phase and a large magnetization difference across the martensitic transformation. For Cu-doped sample, a large was obtained, and gives rise to a large magnetic entropy change of 58.4 J/kg K for 5 T near room temperature accompanying with smaller hysteresis losses. The study on the doping system may have significant impact on realization of room-temperature magnetic refrigeration.
