Tuning nanoscale heterogeneity by non-affine thermal strain to modulate defect activation and maximize magnetocaloric effect of metallic glass
2023, Materials and DesignCitation Excerpt :The sensitivity of MCE performance to the CTC is reminiscent of the changes of plasticity and relaxation enthalpy upon CTC, which are sensitive to the temperature interval and number of cycles [26]. Fig. 7 compare the maximum magnetic entropy changes under a field change of 5 T of present sample with other typical Gd-based MGs (mainly those without a second rare earth element for simplicity) and the Gd-contained high entropy MGs [28–51]. The present 20 cycles-treated sample possesses the largest maximum magnetic entropy change among the listed MGs in the temperature range above 85 K.

2022, Journal of Alloys and CompoundsCitation Excerpt :In contrast, second order magnetic phase transition (SOMPT) MCE materials, represented by amorphous alloys, are more suitable to Ericsson cycle refrigeration due to their wider magnetic entropy change (-ΔSm) profiles [14–17]. Besides, many advantages of amorphous alloys, like the wide range of composition adjustment, outstanding mechanical properties, steerable Curie temperature (Tc), negligible hysteresis, high resistivity, and superior corrosion resistance due to long-range disordered atomic structure, offer even more advantages as MCE materials [18–20]. However, realization of the ideal Ericsson refrigeration process requires the MCE material to maintain a relatively large -ΔSpeakm value within a broad temperature range.

2021, Journal of Rare EarthsCitation Excerpt :Therefore, the magnetic refrigerator using solid magnetic refrigerants is considered to be more compact and more saving to environment because of the absence of ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons, and thus has attracted more and more attentions in recent years.1–4 More recently, amorphous alloys are found to be more suitable for the magnetic refrigerants because they have ultrahigh refrigeration capacity (RC) due to their 2nd order MPT, tunable TC due to their high formability over a wide compositional range and their disordered structure is suitable for excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.14–31 Amongst these amorphous alloys, Gd–transition metal (TM)-based metallic glasses are expected to exhibit excellent MCE because of the high magnetic moment of Gd element with maximum unpaired 4f spin, and the strong interactions between the outermost electron of the Gd and TM atoms.

2020, Journal of Non-Crystalline SolidsCitation Excerpt :So far, two categories of amorphous alloys, one is rare earth (RE)-based and the other is transition metal (TM)-based metallic glasses, have been widely recognized with great application pote lyyyyyyyntials. RE-based amorphous alloys, especially the Gd-based amorphous alloys, usually exhibit excellent glass formability and high maximum magnetic entropy change (−ΔSmpeak) at low temperature [5–14]. Unfortunately, the formability and magnetocaloric properties of these alloys get worse and worse when improving their Curie temperatures (Tc) to room temperature [15–23].
