Magnetic properties of shell-ferromagnetic precipitates in decomposed off-stoichiometric Ni-Mn-based Heusler alloys, studied by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) — •F. Scheibel^1,3, D. Spoddig¹, R.

Off-stoichiometric Ni₅₀Mn_25−yX_y (25>y>0) Heusler alloys decompose into ferromagnetic (FM) Ni₅₀Mn₂₅X₂₅ and antiferromagnetic Ni₅₀Mn₅₀ components when annealed between 600 and 750 K [1]. In the case of y=5 annealed at 650 K, shell-ferromagnetic Ni₅₀Mn₂₅X₂₅ nano-precipitates of about 3 nm are formed. High-field FMR measurements up to 12 T verify the existence of a strong coupling of the shell of the precipitates with the surrounding Ni₅₀Mn₅₀ matrix [2]. Magnetization measurements show a rotation of the shell-spins first above 5 T, while the core shows a soft FM behavior. The magnetic hysteresis is vertically shifted, which makes this material interesting for magnetic-field proof permanent memory application.
