The XRD results reveal the formation of a 14M martensite structure alongside the face-centered-cubic (fcc) γ phase. The crystallite size ranges between 50 and 98 nm for the 14M martensite and from 9 to 16 nm for the γ phase. The mass fraction of the γ phase lies between 36.4 and 44.2%. Co-doping affects the lattice parameters and the characteristic temperatures (martensite start, martensite finish, austenite start, and austenite finish). The calculated activation energy values for the non-isothermal martensitic transformation kinetics are 257 kJ mol−1 and 135.6 kJ mol−1 for the Co1 and Co2, respectively. The produced ribbons show a paramagnetic behavior. The variation in the coercivity can be related to the crystallite size and mass fraction of the γ phase. The produced ribbons exhibit an exchange bias at room temperature that decreases with increasing the Co content Open Access funding provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Springer Nature 2024-10-29T20:42:12Z 2024-10-29T20:42:12Z 2024-06-06 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion peer-reviewed http://hdl.handle.net/10256/25079 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/doi/10.1007/s10973-024-13277-3 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/issn/1388-6150 info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/eissn/1588-2926 Attribution 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Springer Nature Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2024, vol. undef, núm. undef Articles publicats (D-F)
