Abstract

The electrical resistivity, magnetic, and galvanomagnetic properties of the cast and rapid melt quenched Mn3Al Heusler alloy have been studied. Rapid melt quenching was found to result in changing the microstructure of the Mn3Al alloy, which leads to substantial changes in its electronic transport and magnetic
properties. It was suggested that for the cast and rapid melt quenched Mn3Al alloy frustrated antiferromagnetic and almost compensated ferrimagnetic state could appear, respectively. It is shown that the preparation and treatment of the Mn3Al compound plays a substantial role in the formation of its electronic and magnetic
characteristics

Keywords
