Researchers from the Kotelnikov IRE RAS Alexander Kamantsev and Alexey Mashirov visited LNMM in April 2016. The main purpose of the visit was holding experiments in the Laboratory of Novel Magnetic Materials, but young scientists also took part in the internal round of Startup Tour 2016 in Kaliningrad together with the members of the lab.

All the experiments were carried out on FeRh alloy samples, thermally treated by the new method, developed in IRE. Magnetic measurements were conducted by using VSM in temperature range of 100-420 K. Additional measurements were made by DSC in order to know the latent heat of transition.  Thus, it was found that the heat treatment influences the hysteresis loop and changes the latent heat of transition in a special way

This work is a part of a larger FeRh alloy study aimed to optimization of heat treatment methods for further using in the applications of magnetic cooling, memory locations, etc.
