Nanophase Stability In A Granular Ferh-Cu System, Radhika Barua, Felix Jiménez-Villacorta, J. E. Shield, D. Heiman, L. H. Lewis
Donald Heiman
A granular system of FeRh-based nanoprecipitates (∼10–15 nm diameter) embedded in a rapidly solidified copper ribbon matrix was found to transit from a metastable tetragonal L10 (AuCu-1-type) structure to a stable B2 (CsCl-type) structure upon annealing-induced coarsening to ∼94 nm. The hysteretic magnetic transition observed at ∼100 K develops a gradual broadening that accompanies the L10 → B2 crystal structure transition. It is proposed that the Cu matrix influences the structural and magnetic properties of the FeRh-based nanoparticles through interfacial strain and chemical effects. These results emphasize the sensitivity of the magnetostructural response of FeRh to changes in the nanostructural …
