Rapidly quenched metallic alloys and composites for magnetic and magnetocaloric applications
Program: VEGA
Project leader: RNDr. Škorvánek Ivan, CSc.
Annotation: The project addresses the development of novel rapidly quenched alloys with improved functional properties. Its first part will be focused on soft magnetic nanocrystalline alloys with high values of saturation magnetic inductions, which is possible to obtain by lowering of the content of non-magnetic elements in alloy and by utilization of the ultra-rapid annealing technique during the crystallization process. The other part of this project will be devoted to amorphous and nanocrystalline composites in the form of bilayer or trilayer ribbons, with the solid mechanical interface between them. In these heterogeneous systems, we will perform a detailed study of their magnetic properties. In addition, we plan also to optimize their GMI characteristics for potential magnetic sensor applications. In the project, we will focus our attention also on development of rapidly quenched composites with optimized magnetocaloric properties for magnetic cooling in the vicinity of room temperature.

Project leader: RNDr. Marcin Jozef, PhD.
Annotation: The objectives of this project are focused on the study of the soft magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of selected amorphous and nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloys, which can be potentially used in energy conversionand magnetic refrigeration applications. In the center of this project are the issues related to the processing, characterization and magnetic property evaluation of these materials with an emphasis given on microstructure-property relationships. Of particular interest for the first part of project are new Fe-(Co)-M-B-(Si)-Cu alloys with high magnetic saturation. The second part will be focused on the search for newamorphous and nanocrystalline materials for magnetic cooling around room temperature with emphasis on the Gd-Fe-(Co)-Al-B-(Si) based amorphous/nanocrystalline composites. The optimizing of the functional properties ofthe investigated alloy systems could contribute to enhancement of the efficiency of related energy and cooling devices.

CFNT MVEP – Centrum fyziky nízkych teplôt a materiálového výskumu v extrémnych podmienkach
Centre of Low Temperature Physics And Material Research at Extreme Conditions
Program: Centrá excelentnosti SAV
Project leader: prof., RNDr. Samuely Peter, DrSc., akademik US Slovenska
Annotation: Centre of Low Temperature Physics and Material Research at Extreme Conditions Kosice, CLTP-MREC, represents a concept of cutting-edge experimental research institution focused on low temperature physics and material research under extreme conditions. By the extreme conditions apart from low temperatures meant are also high as well as extremely small magnetic fields, extremely high pressures and temperatures, and also reduced dimensions – preparation of nanomaterials and investigations of properties on a nanoscopic scale. Main goal of the project has been to mobilize a common research of constituting organisations and to target it to the area of materials and technologies with a high application potential and technological transfer. The world competitive physics and material science demands the up-to-date research infrastructure. CLTP-MREC has already now in disposal top level instruments and techniques obtained within the framework of the European structural funds, Framework Programmes and other grant schemes but as the most important added value the Centre deems its capability to develop own unique scientific methods, instruments and technologies. The Centre belongs to a dozen world laboratories able to perform experiments in microkelvin range but it disposes also other unique techniques for processing and characterization of materials in high magnetic fields, and at high pressures and temperatures. In this proposal we will concentrate on development of another top level instruments and technologies as well on a synergetic collaboration of our laboratories which represent an important base of the material R&D in Košice.
