Description
Magnetic and structural properties of B2 ordered Co2MnAl Heusler alloy have been studied by X-ray diffraction and DC magnetization techniques. X-ray diffractogram shows the structure is of B2 type with preferential site disorder between Mn and Al atoms and presence of a small L21 phase. DC magnetization studies at low temperature establish that the antiferromagnetic nature arises mainly due to the antiparallel coupling of spin moments of 3d electrons of Co with Mn atoms. Curie temperature (Tc) is 733 K which is close to Tc of the L21 phase
