Through designing the composition and processing approach, the non-equiatomic (Gd36Tb20Co20Al24)100-xFex (x = 0, 1, 2 and 3 at.%) high-entropy-metallic-glass (HE-MG) alloy microwires were successfully fabricated by melt-extraction technique. The microstructure and magnetocaloric properties of the microwires were systematically investigated. The...

Non-equiatomic high-entropy alloys (HEAs), the second-generation multi-phase HEAs, have been recently reported with outstanding properties that surpass the typical limits of conventional alloys and/or the first-generation equiatomic single-phase HEAs. For magnetocaloric HEAs, non-equiatomic (Gd36Tb20Co20Al24)100−xFex microwires, with Curie...

: The highly regarded Fe2P-based magnetocaloric materials are usually fabricated by ball milling, and require an additional extended annealing treatment at high temperatures (at temperatures up to 1423 K for several hours to days). In this work, we show that fabricating Mn1.3Fe0.6P0.5Si0.5 into the form of microwires attained 82.1 wt.% of the...
