Abstract
We report the pressure (P) dependent Curie temperature, Tc (P) in a FeCoNiCuMn high entropy alloy (HEA). We analyze Tc (P) in terms of d-orbital contraction to explain changes in magnetic exchange interactions (Jex). Considerations of the d-radius contraction inferred from the composition dependence of Tc in γ-Fe-Ni are combined with experimental data for P-dependent lattice constants and magnetic measurements of Tc (P), to calculate contributions of atomic spacing and d-orbital radii to Jex. We show the d-orbital contraction with P captures most of the Tc variation in this alloy.
