Abstract

We report in-situ high temperature X-ray diffraction and magnetocaloric measurements for (Fe70Ni30)92Mn8 alloy nanoparticles. At room temperature (RT), a mixture of α-FeNiMn and amorphous phase was observed, followed by transformation to the γ-FeNiMn phase at ∼ 573 K. During cooling from 973 K to RT, the cell volume contracted, and the γ-FeNiMn phase was retained at RT. These nanoparticles show a moderate change in magnetic entropy and high relative cooling power.
