摘要:

通过XRD和磁性测量对MnCo1-xAlxGe (x = 0.00, 0.03, 0.05, 0.08, 0.10, 0.13, 0.15,0.20)化合物的磁热效应进行了研究。 XRD分析表明,MnCo1-xAlxGe系列化合物在Al的含量x ≤ 0.03时,样品为正交结构;当Al的含量x > 0.03时,样品为六角结构。随Co/Al的改变,居里温度可以控制在286K~ 347K范围内变化。在低磁场(0-1.5T )下, Mn Co1-xAlxGe 系列合金具有的最大等温磁熵变为1.52 J/kgK。

Abstract:

The effects of substitution of Al for Co on magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of MnCo1-xAlxGe (x=0.00, 0.03, 0.05, 0.08, 0.10, 0.13, 0.15, and 0.20) compounds have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and magnetization measurements. XRD exhibits that MnCo1-xAlxGe compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic TiNiSi-type structure for x≤0.03 and in the hexagonal Ni2In-type crystal structure for x>0.03. Magnetic measurements show that the Curie temperature can be tuned between 286 and 347 K by changing the Co/Al ratio. The maximum magnetic entropy change determined from the isothermal magnetization measurement by Maxwell relation reaches 1.52 J/(kgK) for x=0.08 in a field change from 0 to 1.5 T around 310 K.
