The magnetocaloric effect of Fe91−xMo8Cu1Bx (x=15,17,20) amorphous alloys has been studied. The temperature of the peak of magnetic entropy change can be tuned by altering the Fe∕B ratio in the alloy, without changing its magnitude, ∣ΔSMpk∣. The average contribution of the Fe atoms to ∣ΔSMpk∣ increases with increasing B content. This is correlated with the increase in the low temperature mean magnetic moment of Fe. A recently proposed master curve behavior for the magnetic entropy change is also followed by these alloys and is common for all of them.
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.
