AbstractMagnetic susceptibility measurements and Mössbauer spectra (MS) were performed on a series of NixFeyAlzB shape memory ribbons obtained by a melt spinning technique. The MS at room temperature show quadrupole splittings of two iron sites. At low temperatures (T<120 K) relaxed magnetic spectra begin to develop and, in one of the samples, a complete resolved magnetic spectrum at 13 K was observed. The overall magnetic susceptibility curves show non Curie-Weiss type behavior with peaks at around 60 K and 35 K. These curves also show magnetic hysteresis in the up-down temperature cycle used during the measurements. We relate our observations with a structural change occurring at temperatures between room temperature and 260 K, a second one around 200 K, and with the developing of spin-glass behavior at low temperatures, when the magnetic influences of Fe and Ni atoms almost compensate each other.

In this work, we investigated magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effect in Fe90−xCoxZr7Cu1B2 (x = 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4) melt-spun ribbons. The ribbons were prepared by using a melt-spinning method with a tangential velocity of a copper wheel of 40 m·s-1. The obtained ribbons are almost amorphous. The alloys exhibit typical soft magnetic behavior with low coercivity at room temperature. A minor replacement of Fe by Co gives an increment in Curie temperature (TC) of the alloys to higher temperatures. The TC of the alloys increases from 242 to 342 K with an increase of x from 0 to 4. Maximum magnetic entropy change, ΔSm max, of the alloys, was found to be larger than 0.7 J·kg-1·K-1 in a magnetic field change ΔH of 12 kOe for all the concentrations of Co. High refrigerant capacitys (RC >100 J ·kg-1 with ΔH = 12 kOe) at room temperature region have been obtained for the alloys. The large magnetocaloric effect near room temperature suggests that the alloys can be considered as magnetic refrigerants in the range of 250–350 K.

Polycrystalline ingots of Co70–xNixGa30 (20 ≤ x ≤ 26) ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (FSMA) were prepared by arc melting elemental powders followed by homogenization at 1230 °C for 24 hrs and quenching in liquid nitrogen. Room temperature X-Ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of as-quenched samples exhibited single-phase tetragonal structure for alloy compositions with x = 21 to 26, and a two-phase structure (cubic A2-phase along with weak tetragonal phase) for the alloy with x = 20. Rietveld refinement was performed on the X-ray diffraction patterns to obtain the refined structural parameters. Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) curves recorded from 30 °C to 250 °C revealed martensite-austenite and austenite-martensite transformations in all alloys except the alloy with composition x = 20. Low temperature ac magnetic susceptibility measurements confirmed the existence of martensitic transformations in the alloy with x = 20. The structural transformation temperatures show a linear variation with e/a ratio. All the alloys were ferromagnetic at room temperature. Curie temperature was determined using a high temperature ac magnetic susceptibility measurement set-up.

Mossbauer spectra of YC012B6 and NdCo12B6 doped with enriched 57Fe have been obtained at various temperatures between 4�2 K and room temperature. The spectrum of YC012B6 at 4�2 K indicates that the Co sublattice orders in the crystallographic basal plane. NdCo12B6 orders along or close to the crystallographic c-axis at 4�2 K and undergoes a spin-reorientation with increasing temperature until at ~55 K the magnetisation lies in or near the basal plane.

Manganese (Mn)- and yttrium (Y)-substituted Sr-nanohexaferrites (MYSNHFs) of composition Sr1−xMnxFe12−xYxO19 (with 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) were prepared by citrate sol-gel autocombustion method. As-prepared MYSNHFs were characterized via diverse analytical techniques to determine the influence of Mn and Y cosubstitution on their microstructures and magnetic properties. 57Fe Mössbauer spectra of the MYSNHFs were used to evaluate the variation in the line width, isomer shift, quadrupole splitting, and hyperfine magnetic field values. It was shown that the dopant ions could preferentially occupy the 12k, 4f2, and 2b sites. Furthermore, the observed shift in the blocking temperatures of the studied MYSNHFs towards lower values with rising Mn2+ and Y3+ contents was attributed to the overall particles size reduction. Meanwhile, the AC susceptibility of the proposed MYSNHFs revealed that the magnetic interactions were weakened with the increase in dopant contents which was ascribed to the replacement of both Sr2+ and Fe3+ ions by the Mn2+ and Y3+ dopants.

ABSTRACTHomogeneous gelled composites of iron and vitreous alumina containing 10-40% Fe have been prepared by room temperature polymerization of aqueous aluminum alkoxide solutions containing ferric nitrate and nitric acid at low pH. Scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and Mossbauer spectroscopy demonstrated that this bulk material is comprised of nanometer-sized regions of iron compounds embedded in a vitreous alumina gel matrix. Magnetization data showed that in the as-cured condition these nanocomposites are paramagnetic at room temperature and become either superparamagnetic or ferromagnetic on cooling to 10 K. The magnetic susceptibility increased with the Fe content and with decreasing temperature. Analysis of the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility indicated the magnetic moment per Fe atom was 1.87 µB for the 10% Fe nanocomposite and that it increased linearly with composition to 1.96 µB for the 40% Fe material. Mössbauer effect data showed that subsequent treatment of these materials in a gaseous environment of hydrogen at elevated temperatures (T<400 C) changed the form of the iron in the magnetic regions. These results are compared to that observed for similar nanocomposites prepared using a silica gel matrix.
