Shifting martensite transformation temperatures of single crystalline Fe72Pd28 thin films by external magnetic fields

 The effect of an external magnetic field B   on the martensite phase transformation temperature T0T0 was studied for single crystalline Fe72Pd28 thin films. From in-plane and out-of-plane aligned magnetic field dependent resistance measurements under various fields up to 9 T, T0T0 was determined. The relation between T0T0 and B is explained quantitatively by the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. The calculated value of 0.62 K/T is close to the values of the linear fits of 0.79 K/T and 0.76 K/T obtained from measurements with B aligned in-plane and out-of-plane.
