Nanoscale surface properties of a Ni–Mn–Ga 10M magnetic shape memory alloy

► A surface layer of ∼2.5nm and rich in Mn and Ga oxides is established with XPS. ► Nanoindentation is applied on electropolished and mechanically polished crystals. ► A similar type of oxide layer appears both in the electropolished and mech. polished surface. ► In the electropolished surface elast...
