The Forced Magnetostrictions and Magnetic Properties of NiMnX (X = In, Sn) Ferromagnetic Heusler Alloys.

Experimental studies into the forced magnetostriction, magnetization, and temperature dependence of permeability in NiMnIn and NiMnSn ferromagnetic Heusler alloys were performed according to the spin fluctuation theory of itinerant ferromagnetism proposed by Takahashi. We investigated the magnetic field () dependence of magnetization () at the Curie temperature , and at = 4.2 K, which concerns the ground state of the ferromagnetic state.

The Characteristic Properties of Magnetostriction and Magneto-Volume Effects of NiMnGa-Type Ferromagnetic Heusler Alloys.

In this article, we review the magnetostriction and magneto-volume effects of NiMnGa-type ferromagnetic Heusler alloys at the martensitic, premartensitic, and austenitic phases. The correlations of forced magnetostriction (ΔV/V) and magnetization (), using the self-consistent renormalization (SCR) spin fluctuation theory of an itinerant electron ferromagnet proposed by Takahashi, are evaluated for the ferromagnetic Heusler alloys. The magneto-volume effect occurs due to the interaction between the magnetism and volume change of the magnetic crystals.

Drastic change in density of states upon martensitic phase transition for metamagnetic shape memory alloy Ni2Mn(1+x)In(1-x).

We have unravelled the electronic structure of a class of metamagnetic shape memory alloy Ni2Mn1+x In1-x by combining bulk-sensitive hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and first-principles density-functional calculations.
