The Heusler-type alloy MgZn₂Ce

Acta Crystallographica Section E Structure Reports Online, 2007
Single crystals of the MgZn2Ce alloy (magnesium dizinc cerium) were synthesized by a two-step method which couples the thermal treatment of pressed pellets of the pure elements with subsequent arc melting. The compound crystallizes in a Heusler-type (MnCu2Al) structure in the space group Fm\overline{3}m, with one Zn site (site symmetry \overline{4}3m),

A Review on the Magnetovolume Effect of the Full Heusler Alloys Ni₂MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb)

Metals
The full Heusler alloys Ni2MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb) exhibit ferromagnetic properties with a Curie temperature (TC) above room temperature. The magnetic properties of Ni2MnZ (Z = In, Sn, Sb) were studied through a combination of experiments and band ...

Unusual nature of the martensite and ferromagnetic transitions in Ni2Mn0.4-XFeXCr0.6Ga Heusler alloys

AIP Advances, 2017
An experimental study has been performed on a series of Ni2Mn0.4-xFexCr0.6Ga Heusler alloys. At room temperature, the alloys crystallize in either the tetragonal martensite (x < 0.1) or cubic L21 structure (x ≥ 0.1).

Enhanced Oxidation and Thermal Shock Resistance of N‐type Mg2Si0.89(Sn0.1,Sb0.01) Thermoelectric Material via Cr0.9Si0.1 Coating

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 3, 4 February 2026.
Cr0.9Si0.1 protective coatings are developed to enhance the thermal‐shock and oxidation resistance of Mg2Si0.89(Sn0.1,Sb0.01) thermoelectric (TE) materials. The coating forms a dense and adherent barrier that suppresses oxygen diffusion and mitigates mechanical degradation during cyclic oxidation, demonstrating its potential to improve the long‐term ...

Control of Covalent Bond Enables Efficient Magnetic Cooling

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 7, 2 February 2026.
Giant and reversible magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is achieved by tuning covalency through sub‐unit‐cell chemical engineering, establishing a novel design principle for effective hysteresis control in magnetocaloric materials. Abstract Magnetic cooling, harnessing the temperature change in matter when exposed to a magnetic field, presents an energy ...

Common misconceptions in crystallography and crystal optics

Journal of Applied Crystallography, Volume 59, Issue 1, Page 239-247, February 2026.
Six recurrent misconceptions in crystallography, some involving mineral and crystal optics, are analyzed and discussed. The explanation of these and similar misconceptions could serve as educational resources for teachers.Did you know that an X‐ray diffraction pattern is not a spectrum?
