Magnetic-Field Induced Two-Way Shape Memory Effect of Ferromagnetic Ni<SUB>2</SUB>MnGa Sputtered Films

Abstract: The shape memory effect (SME) induced by the magnetic field is interesting and important for physics and application. The ferromagnetic Ni 2 MnGa films with various compositions were deposited on a poly-vinyl alcohol (PVA) substrate with a radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering apparatus using four kinds of Ni-Mn-Ga targets. After separating from the substrate, the films were heat-treated at 1073 K for 3.6 ks for homogenization and aged at 673 K for 3.6 ks in a constraint condition. The reversible two-way S… Show more

“…Concerning actuation and resetting, also other options exist, such as the use of two counteracting FSMA film actuators, the design of FSMA films showing the two‐way shape memory effect, or the use of a FSMA film composite comprising an additional elastic layer. The different options of combined use of film‐based actuation and energy harvesting are summarized in Table 1 .…”

“…(13) Sputtering is one of the methods used for preparing an MSMA thin film. (14)(15)(16)(17) Sputtering makes it possible to fabricate thin films with a thickness of several microns, which is difficult with bulk materials. In addition, it is expected to contribute to improving the response in actuation and the downsizing of actuators.…”

“…Fig. 3 shows the shape change under the magnetic field of 0 and 5 T and the strain-magnetic field curve at the temperature between M s * and M f * on cooling for the N54.4(AG) film with the large gradient and small thermal hysteresis in the strain-temperature curve [7]. The strain increased with increasing magnetic field and decreased with decreasing magnetic field.…”

“…The strain-temperature curves under the magnetic field of 0 and 5 T for N51.4(AG) and N54.4(AG) films are shown in Fig. 1 [7]. The strain at the outer surface was given by e ¼ d/2r, where d is the thickness of the films and r is the radius of a curvature for the films.…”
