Tuning nanoscale heterogeneity by non-affine thermal strain to modulate defect activation and maximize magnetocaloric effect of metallic glass

The effects of non-affine thermal strain on the structure, defect activation and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) have been investigated in Gd55Co20Al24.5Si0.5 metallic glass (MG). Maxwell-Voigt models are utilized to analyze the impact of cryogenic thermal cycling (CTC) on the evolution of heterogeneous...
