Magnetic phase diagram of the mn_x fe_2−x p_1−y si_y system

The phase diagram of the magnetocaloric Mn_x Fe_2−x P_1−y Si_y quaternary compounds was established by characterising the structure, thermal and magnetic properties in a wide range of compositions (for a Mn fraction of 0.3 ≤ x < 2.0 and a Si fraction of 0.33 ≤ y ≤ 0.60). The highest ferromagnetic...
