Abstract

The authors report the observation of exchange bias in bulk polycrystalline Ni50Mn25+xSb25−x Heusler alloys. Shifts in hysteresis loops of up to 248Oe were observed in the 5T field cooled samples. The observed exchange bias behavior in Ni50Mn25+xSb25−x is attributed to the coexistence of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic exchange interactions in the system. Such behavior is an addition to the multifunctional properties of the Ni50Mn25+xSb25−x Heusler alloy system.
