Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is well-known that the miscibility gap between ferro- and para-magnetic phases, so-called “Nishizawa horn”, appears along the Curie temperature (TC) curve. It is expected that such a miscibility gap also appears between antiferro- and para-magnetic phases across the Neel temperature (TN) curve due to the excess Gibbs energy of antiferromagnetism. In this study, the miscibility gap between antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases in the NiMn-NiZn pseudo-binary system was investigated. Neel temperatures in the NiMn-NiZn pseudo-binary system was determined by DSC and VSM, which decreases with increasing Zn content. In the microstructure of the NiMn/NiZn diffusion couple heat-treated at 700°C for 3 months, a clear interface was recognized. Two-phase microstructures were also obtained in Ni50(Mn47Zn3) alloy heat-treated at 680°C for 1 and 3 months. In conclusion, the existence of the miscibility gap between antiferro- and para-magnetic phases along the TN curve was confirmed.
