| contents | Experiments showed that solute Mn in bcc iron is in antiferromagnetic (AFM) coupling with iron neighbours below 2 at.% Mn, but is in ferromagnetic (FM) coupling at higher concentrations. Surprisingly, although Mn is an important alloying element in high-strength steels, it induces brittleness just at around 2 at.% Mn and higher concentrations. However, the mechanisms for the magnetic ordering phase transition and the abnormal brittleness remain unclear. Based on magnetism-constrained/unconstrained calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations within density functional theory, we show that while the AFM phase prevails at low Mn contents, the FM phase becomes dominant at 1.85 at.% Mn and elevated temperatures. Our results suggest that the AFM-FM phase transition with increasing Mn concentration can be ascribed to the thermal effect. Furthermore, we find that the brittleness of the Fe-Mn alloys at intermediate Mn content might be related to the stress variations within the grains accompanying the local magnetic ordering changes. |
