The effect of Co and Ni substitutions for Fe on the magnetocaloric properties of MnFe(P,Ge) compounds crystallizing in the hexagonal Fe2P type of structure was studied. It was found that, by changing composition, a small thermal hysteresis and a giant magnetocaloric effect can be obtained simultaneously in MnFe(P,Ge) compounds when the magnetic...

Substitution of some Cr for Mn atoms in MnCoGe was employed to control the magnetic and structural transitions in this alloy to coincide, leading to a single first-order magnetostructural transition from the ferromagnetic to the paramagnetic state with a giant magnetocaloric effect observed near room temperature. Further increase in the Cr...

Structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of the MnFe(P,Ge) compounds were systematically studied on both bulk alloys and melt-spun ribbons. The experimental results show that the critical behavior of the phase transition can be controlled by changing either the compositions or the annealing conditions. The thermal hysteresis is found...
