OS0906 Development of Ni-Mn-In type Ferromagnetic Shape Memory Alloy Sheet by Severe Plastic Deformation Process

Abstract

Grained Co-added Ni-Mn-In alloy was solidified using Compression Shearing Method at Room Temperature method. As for the solidified material, crystal structure at room temperature and magnetic property were investigated. In the solidified material using a Ni_<45>Mn_<40>In_<15> target, both structural-phase and martensitic transition which are induced in connection with a temperature change were observed. It became clear that the solidified material has the similar characteristic as a Ni-Mn-In bulk alloy and a sputtered film.
