Characteristics of 5M modulated martensite in Ni-Mn-Ga magnetic shape memory alloys

The applicability of the magnetic shape memory effect in Ni-Mn-based martensitic Heusler alloys is closely related to the nature of the crystallographically modulated martensite phase in these materials. We study the properties of modulated phases as a function of temperature and composition in thre...
