On the High-Temperature Phase Transition of GdSiGe.

The first-order monoclinic-to-orthorhombic (β→γ) phase transition of the giant magnetocaloric material GdSiGe was studied using in situ high-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction. A special crystal mounting procedure was developed to avoid crystal contamination by oxygen or nitrogen at high t...
