Substrate-free structures of iron-doped Ni-Mn-Ga thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition

We discuss the preparation of thin films of ferromagnetic shape-memory Ni-Mn-Ga alloys on NaCl using pulsed laser deposition and present a simple way to release the film from its substrate and to realize free-standing Ni-Mn-Ga structures.
