Resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) provides a window on the pervasive influence of
strain coupling at phase transitions in perovskites through determination of elastic and …

The determination of the nature of phase transitions, especially those that involve two
symmetry-breaking order parameters, is a fundamental issue in condensed matter physics …

Abstract Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy has been used to characterize elastic and
anelastic anomalies in a polycrystalline sample of multiferroic Pb (Fe 0.5 Nb 0.5) O 3 (PFN) …

The magnetostructural transition in the Mn 0.96 Co 1.04 GeB 0.02 ribbon alloy was
investigated. Chemical, structural, microstructural, and magnetic studies were performed on …

Ferroelastic materials can develop complex domain structures, which have properties of
glassy systems (non‐ergodicity, glass dynamics, glass transitions, and freezing). Four …

The results of magnetic measurements, electron spin resonance, heat capacity, resistivity,
and magnetocaloric effect as well as density functional theory (DFT), are presented for the …

The first-order ferrimagnet ErCo 2 attracts interest not only because of metamagnetism and
magnetocaloric effect just above TC≈ 32–34 K but also because it is closely related with the …

In the present work, we report on magnetocaloric properties of nanocrystalline Pr 2 Co 7
compounds in its two polymorphic forms. Magnetic measurements show a second order …

We observed exotic hysteresis behavior in the ferrimagnetic transition of a Laves compound
TbCo2. While positive thermal hysteresis was observed in zero-field calorimetric …

Zero thermal expansion (ZTE) materials, particularly metals, have important applications in
precision manufacturing. Here, ultra-low thermal expansion over a significantly broadened …
