摘要
Correlations between magnetic transition temperatures and the average weighted valence band electron concentration ((s+d) electrons/atom) have led to the development of a phenomenological model that predicts the influence of elemental substitution on the magnetostructural response of bulk B2-ordered Fe(Rh1-xMx) or (Fe1-xMx)Rh alloys (M = transition elements; x < 6 at. %). Validation of this model is provided through synthesis and characterization of FeRh with Cu and Au additions. The data and associated trends indicate that the lattice and electronic free energies are both equally important in driving the magnetostructural transition in the bulk FeRh system.
