Abstract:The Mn2FeSi inverse-Heusler alloy was prepared by solid-state reactions using ball milling for 168 h in nhexane. Two milling procedures varying in the ball-to-powder ratio, namely 4:1 and 10:1, were used to follow their influence on alloy formation and its physical properties. In both cases no Heusler structure was obtained directly and therefore the subsequent annealing at 1223 K for 1.5 h in pure Ar was applied. The energydispersive X-ray analysis resulted in the chemical composition about 49.0-49.9 at% Mn, … Show more
