Magnetocaloric effect and critical behavior in Fe-La-Zr rapidly quenched ribbons

Fe90-xLaxZr10 (x ¼ 1 and 2) rapidly quenched ribbons with thickness of about 15 mm were prepared by the melt-spinning method. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the structure of the ribbons is mostly amorphous. The Curie temperature, TC, of the alloy considerably increased, from ~262 K for x ¼...

Description
Summary:Fe90-xLaxZr10 (x ¼ 1 and 2) rapidly quenched ribbons with thickness of about 15 mm were prepared by the melt-spinning method. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the structure of the ribbons is mostly amorphous. The Curie temperature, TC, of the alloy considerably increased, from ~262 K for x ¼ 1 to ~302 K for x ¼ 2, with increasing La-concentration. The maximum magnetic entropy change, jDSmjmax, of the alloy is about 1.1 J∙kg1K1 for a magnetic field change DH ¼ 12 kOe. A quite large refrigerant capacity (RC ~ 74 J∙kg1 for DH ¼ 12 kOe) near the room temperature region is obtained for the alloy. A thorough analysis on critical exponents around the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic phase transition, using the ArrotteNoakes plots and KouveleFisher method, sheds light on the critical magnetic behavior and its association with the magnetocaloric effect in the Fe-La based alloys.
