Investigation of microstructural influence on entropy change in magnetocaloric polycrystalline samples of NiMnGaCu ferromagnetic shape memory alloy
Among NiMnGa-based quaternary systems, NiMnGaCu exhibits an interesting giant magnetocaloric effect thanks to the temperature overlapping of magnetic transition and thermoelastic martensitic transformation (TMT), in particular for compositions with ≈6 at% Cu content. In the present work polycrystall...
