Martensite as an art 2
Interesting microscopic observations of martensite obtained recently (10M martensite in Ni-Mn-Ga): Branching of martensite bands near austenite-martensite interface (austenite is violet region on the right), upon heating.
Superspace symmetry and magnetocrystalline anisotropy of Ni-Mn-Ga-based crystals – presentation at SSCSSPM-11
Project researchers Petr Veřtát and Michal Rameš participated at the 11th Student Scientific Conference on Solid State Physics and Materials, 12-15th of September 2022. The goal of the conference is…
Martensite as an art
The martensite still surprises us with its unexpected beauty. The above figure shows a specific microstructure with a mixture of NM and 14M martensite bands at -196°C (DIC/Nomarski contrast in…
B.Sc. theses on magnetic shape memory-based micropump created within project
One of the most promising application directions for magnetic shape memory alloys are microfluidic pumps and related devices. The topic studied in this project, i.e. control of twinned structure, or…
