A constant magnetocaloric response in FeMoCuB amorphous alloys with different FeB ratios

Abstract

The magnetocaloric effect of Fe91−xMo8Cu1Bx (x = 15 , 17 , 20) amorphous alloys has been studied. The temperature of the peak of magnetic entropy change can be tuned by altering the Fe / B ratio in pk pk the alloy, without changing its magnitude, ILlSM I. The average contribution of the Fe atoms to ILlSM I increases with increasing B content. This is correlated with the increase in the low temperature mean magnetic moment of Fe. A recently proposed master curve behavior for the magnetic entropy change is also followed by these alloys and is common for all of them.
