摘要：

An investigation on the magnetostructural transformation and magnetocaloric properties of Ni48-xCo2Mn38+xSn12 (x=0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5) ferromagnetic shape memory alloys is carried out. With the partial replacement of Ni by Mn in the Ni48Co2Mn38Sn12 alloy, the electron concentration decreases. As a result, the martensitic transformation temperature is decreased into the temperature window between the Curie-temperatures of austenite and martensite. Thus, the samples with x=1.5 and 2.0 exhibit the magnetostructural transformation between the weak-magnetization martensite and ferromagnetic austenite at room temperature. The structural transformation can be induced not only by the temperature, but also by the magnetic field. Accompanied by the magnetic-field-induced magnetostructural transformation, a considerable magnetocaloric effect is observed. With the increase of x, the maximum entropy change decreases, but the effective magnetic cooling capacity increases.
