Following the Martensitic Configuration Footprints in the Transition Route of Ni-Mn-Ga Magnetic Shape Memory Films: Insight into the Role of Twin Boundaries and Interfaces

Following the Martensitic Configuration Footprints in the Transition Route of Ni-Mn-Ga Magnetic Shape Memory Films: Insight into the Role of Twin Boundaries and Interfaces

Magnetic shape memory Heuslers have a great potential for their exploitation in next-generation cooling devices and actuating systems, due to their “giant” caloric and thermo/magnetomechanical effects arising from the combination of magnetic order and a martensitic transition. Thermal hysteresis, br...
