Abstract

High-performance magnetocaloric materials should have a large reversible magnetocaloric effect and good heat exchange capability. Here, we developed a Ni48.1Co2.9Mn35.0In14.0 metamagnetic shape memory microwire with a large and reversible inverse magnetocaloric effect. As compared to the bulk counterpart, the microwire shows a better combination of magnetostructural transformation parameters (magnetization difference across transformation ΔM, transformation entropy change ΔStr, thermal hysteresis ΔThys, and transformation interval ΔTint) and thus greatly reduced critical field required for complete and reversible magnetic-field-induced transformation. A strong and reversible metamagnetic transition occurred in the microwire, which facilitates the achievement of large reversible magnetoresponsive effects. Consequently, a large and reversible magnetic-field-induced entropy change ΔSm of 12.8 J kg-11K-1 under 5 T was achieved in the microwire, which is the highest value reported heretofore in Ni-Mn-based magnetic shape memory wires. Furthermore, since microwires have a high surface/volume ratio, they exhibit very good heat exchange capability. The present Ni48.1Co2.9Mn35.0In14.0 microwire shows great potential for magnetic refrigeration. This study may stimulate further development of high-performance magnetocaloric wires for high-efficiency and environmentally friendly solid-state cooling. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
