Effect of chemical ordering annealing on superelasticity of Ni-Mn-Ga-Fe ferromagnetic shape memory alloy microwires

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/ab8213

Abstract Ni₅₀Mn₂₅Ga₂₀Fe₅ ferromagnetic shape memory alloy microwires with diameters of ～30-50μm and grain sizes of ～2-5μm were prepared by melt-extraction technique. A step-wise chemical ordering annealing was carried out to improve the superelasticity strain and recovery ratio which were hampered by the internal stress, compositional inhomogeneity, and high-density defects in the as-extracted Ni₅₀Mn₂₅Ga₂₀Fe₅ microwires. The annealed microwires exhibited enhanced atomic ordering degree, narrow thermal hysteresis, and high saturation magnetization under a low magnetic field. As a result, the annealed microwire showed decreased superelastic critical stress, improved reversibility, and a high superelastic strain (1.9%) with a large recovery ratio (>96%). This kind of filamentous material with superior superelastic effects may be promising materials for minor-devices.
