Critical Behavior Studies in the Vicinity of the Curie Temperature in the MnCoGe Alloy

Authors:

Abstract
The main goal of the present work was to study the critical behavior in the MnCoGe alloy in the vicinity of the critical temperature TC. The second-order phase transition from ferro- to paramagnetic state was preliminarily confirmed by the positive slope of the Arrott plots. The critical exponents have been revealed using the Kouvel–Fisher method and yield β = 0.474 ± 0.005, γ = 0.917 ± 0.005, and δ = 2.985 ± 0.005. The Curie temperature for the MnCoGe equals 293.3 ± 0.1 K.
