We present a hybrid method to inspect the phase stability of compounds having a CaCu5-type crystal structure. This is done using 2D stability plots using the Miedema parameters that are based on the work function and electron density of the constituent elements. Stable compounds ...
We have investigated the crystallographic and magnetic properties of (Mn,Fe)3-δGa alloys. The hexagonal phase is stable between 600 and 700 °C and can be stabilized by quenching to room temperature. Mn3Ga is reported to be off-stoichiometric, but we show that using melt-spinning ...
Temperature dependent high-resolution x-ray diffraction measurements were used to characterize the magneto-elastic ferromagnetic transition of (Fe,Mn)2(P,Si,B) compounds. Across the transition, apart from a change in lattice parameters across the transition, the internal coordina ...
Magnetic refrigeration near room temperature is considered as environmentally benign alternative for the current compressor based cooling technology. Two materials that are based on ferromagnetic transition metal compounds are considered as the most promising candidates to be use ...

In this thesis, the boundary conditions for the development of giant magnetocaloric materials are investigated. The magnetocaloric effect is found in magnetic materials, when they are subjected to an external magnetic field. This leads to abrupt magnetization changes that cause a ...
Magnetic cooling is a highly efficient refrigeration technique with the potential to replace the traditional vapor compression cycle. It is based on the magnetocaloric effect, which is associated with the temperature change of a material when placed in a magnetic field. We presen ...
Chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn) and carbon (C) are well known alloying elements used in technologically important alloy steels and advanced high strength steels. It is known that binary Crc(x) and MnCx carbides can be formed in steels, but in this study we reveal for the first time ...

Though the commercialisation of nanotechnology began only 30 years ago, it has developed into one of the fastest growing industries in terms of research and design, with an unlimited amount of possibilities that will transform industries from how we know them today. The advancem ...
