The second-order magnetic phase transition and magnetocaloric effect in all-d-metal NiCoMnTi-based Heusler alloys

The novel all-d-metal Ni(Co)MnTi based magnetic Heusler alloys provide an adjustable giant magnetocaloric effect and good mechanical properties. We report that the second-order magnetic phase transition can be tailored in this all-d-metal NiCoMnTi based Heusler system by optimizing the Mn/Ti ratio, resulting in a reversible ferromagnetic-to...
