4. Conclusions
- Gd-based metallic microfibers have a favorable thermal stability and glass-forming ability. The local atoms in the microfibers are arranged in an orderly manner and the ordered micro-regions are formed after annealing @ 380 °C.
- The Mr, Hc, and μm of the Gd-based metallic microfibers increase with the rising of the annealing temperature, which reached 17.83 emu/g, 125.12 Oe, and 0.58, respectively at the annealing temperature of 380 °C. The −ΔSmmax, RC, and RCP for the microfibers annealed at 380 °C are 7.20 J/kg K, 459.4 J/kg, and 588.7 J/kg, respectively, at the Hex of 5 T.
- After annealing @ 380 °C, the local atoms in the metallic microfibers are rearranged to generate ordered micro-regions of atomic clusters, which will hinder the movement of the domain wall and the rotation of the magnetic moment during the magnetization process, thereby affecting the synergy of the magnetic moment under the external magnetic field. Simultaneously, the magnetic entropy value of the microfibers decreases with the formation of the locally ordered micro-regions, which ultimately affects the magnetocaloric properties.
