Abstract:The transition-metal based alloy MnFe 4 Si 3 not only is a potential candidate for room temperature magnetocaloric applications, but also shows a large magnetic anisotropy forming an interesting case study in the search for rare-earth free permanent magnets. However, former polycrystalline and single crystal studies led to major disagreements about the order of the magnetic transition and the magnetocrystalline anisotropy scheme, which are two essential points for the understanding of this alloy. Here, magneti… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
