Magnetoelastic transition and negative thermal expansion of Fe₂Hf_0.83Ta_0.17 ribbons

In this work, the magnetocaloric effect and negative thermal expansion in melt-spun Fe₂Hf_0.83Ta_0.17 Laves phase alloys were studied. Compared to arc-melted alloys, which undergo a first-order magnetoelastic transition from the ferromagnetic to the antiferromagnetic phase, melt-spun alloys exhibit a second...

Exploring the negative thermal expansion and magnetocaloric effect in Fe₂(Hf,Ti) Laves phase materials

The transition-metal based Laves phase materials represent an extended family of alloys with rich and fascinating physical properties. In this work, we have investigated the negative thermal expansion and magnetocaloric effect in arc-melted and melt-spun Fe₂Hf_1-_xTi_x (x = 0.15, 0.27, 0.30, 0.33, 0.36...
