Ni-Mn-X (X = Ga, In, Sn, and Sb) alloys undergoing the first-order martensitic transformation have received attention owing to their various functional behaviors (e.g., magnetic shape-memory, magnetocaloric, and elastocaloric effects), which can be developed as materials for application in novel-intelligent sensing and solid-state refrigeration. Recently, along the line of texturation and microstructure control for the polycrystalline alloys, our group has conducted a series of explorations on the crystal structure and microstructural features, martensitic transformation crystallography, and related functional behavior of polycrystalline Ni-Mn-X alloys. In this paper, the recent progress of our group's study has been summarized.
