    Effect of high-energy ball-milling on the magnetostructural properties of a Ni45Co5Mn35Sn15 alloy
    (Elsevier, 2021) López García, José Luis; Sánchez-Alarcos Gómez, Vicente; Recarte Callado, Vicente; Rodríguez Velamazán, José Alberto; Unzueta, Iraultza; García, José Ángel; Plazaola, Fernando; La Roca, Paulo Matías; Pérez de Landazábal Berganzo, José Ignacio; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, PC017-018 AMELEC
    The effect of high-energy ball-milling on the magnetostructural properties of a Ni45Co5Mn35Sn15 alloy in austenitic phase at room temperature has been analyzed by neutron and high-resolution X-ray diffraction. The ball milling promotes a mechanically-induced martensitic transformation as well as the appearance of amorphous-like non-transforming regions, following a double stage; for short milling times (below 30 min), a strong size reduction and martensite induction occur. On the opposite, for longer times, the increase of strains predominates and consequently a larger amount of non-transforming regions appears. The effect of the microstructural defects brought by milling (as dislocations) on both the enthalpy change at the martensitic transformation and the high field magnetization of the austenite has been quantitatively estimated and correlated to the internal strains. Contrary to what occurs in ternary Ni-Mn-Sn alloys, the mechanically-induced defects do not change the ferromagnetic coupling between Mn atoms, but just cause a net reduction on the magnetic moments.

    Correlation between particle size and magnetic properties in soft-milled Ni45Co5Mn34In16 powders
    (Elsevier, 2021) Khanna, Deepali; Sánchez-Alarcos Gómez, Vicente; Recarte Callado, Vicente; Pérez de Landazábal Berganzo, José Ignacio; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, PC017-018 AMELEC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    The effect of microstructural defects induced by mechanical milling has been studied in a Ni–Mn–In–Co metamagnetic shape memory alloy. The martensitic transformation and Curie temperatures do not change with grinding, thus pointing out to a null variation of long range atomic order as a consequence of the deformation. Nevertheless, the enthalpy change of the martensitic transformation highly decreases. This, and the large thermal stabilization of the martensite (with shifts on the temperature of the first reverse martensitic transformation up to 60 K), indicate the presence of a huge amount of internal stresses and microstructural defects in the obtained micro-particles. The presence of such defects considerably affects the saturation magnetization in austenite whereas almost no effect is observed in martensite. The magnetocaloric effect has been evaluated in samples with three different particle sizes. In spite of the MCE value is lower than in the bulk, the broader temperature range for the martensitic transformation in the powders makes the relative cooling power be comparable to that in the bulk. The as-milled micro-particles can be then considered as good preliminary candidates for magnetic refrigeration applications at the microscale.
