Abstract

Micro-pillars oriented in austenite along [100], [110], and [111] crystallographic directions were fabricated on the corresponding edges of a single crystalline plate of the Ni48Fe20Co5Ga27 magnetic shape memory alloy exhibiting martensitic transformation (MT) at 150 K. Superelastic behavior of pillars, due to micro-compression-induced MT, was investigated at different temperatures from 298 K to 373 K. At room temperature, Young’s moduli of the [100], [110], and [111] pillars in austenite are equal to 5.3 GPa, 7.9 GPa, and 9.9 GPa, respectively, resulting in the linear dependences of the elastic strain reaching up to the record-breaking value of 10%. On increasing temperature, the stress–strain dependencies exhibit changes that are interpreted in terms of the critical behavior on approaching to the end points on the martensite–austenite stress–temperature phase diagrams.

Highlights

  • Master alloy with a nominal composition of Ni48Fe20Co5Ga27 was fabricated by arc melting the high purity elements and homogenized

  • Micro-pillars oriented in austenite along [100], [110], and [111] crystallographic directions were fabricated on the corresponding edges of a single crystalline plate of the Ni48Fe20Co5Ga27 magnetic shape memory alloy exhibiting martensitic transformation (MT) at 150 K

  • In order to fill these gaps, in the present work, the micro-pillars with three different crystallographic orientations were prepared using corresponding edges of the Ni48Fe20Co5Ga27 single crystalline plate and their superelastic (SE) stress–strain dependences were tested at different constant temperatures

Summary

Introduction

Master alloy with a nominal composition of Ni48Fe20Co5Ga27 (at. %) was fabricated by arc melting the high purity elements and homogenized. Micro-pillars oriented in austenite along [100], [110], and [111] crystallographic directions were fabricated on the corresponding edges of a single crystalline plate of the Ni48Fe20Co5Ga27 magnetic shape memory alloy exhibiting martensitic transformation (MT) at 150 K.
