Abstract

The outcomes of experiments on the physical, electrical, magnetic and thermal assets of Fe2CrAl full Heusler alloy are discussed. Different studies scientifically investigated the physical properties of Fe2CrAl Heusler alloys. The ternary full Heusler alloy Fe2CrAl was synthesized by the automatic mechanical alloying method. The influence of annealing at various temperatures was studied. Cu2MnAl - type structure of L21 type phase was confirmed using X-ray diffraction analysis. Williamson-Hall plot (W–H plot) proved the small value of strain-induced expansion. High-resolution electron microscopy analysis suggests that the Fe2CrAl Heusler alloy has a nano flake-like structure with a typical particle size of ⁓ 120 nm. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy study clearly shows that all the elements are present in the Fe2CrAl full Heusler alloy. Thermal stability was tested using thermal analysis techniques. Interpreting the results obtained from the Seeback measurement discloses the metallic to semiconducting like behavior, which is feasible for spintronics. VSM measurements indicate the soft ferromagnetic property of the Fe2CrAl alloy, which is demandable for spintronics device applications.
