A novel foil actuator of 15 x 3 mm(2) lateral dimensions is presented making use of the magnetic shape memory (MSM) effect. The actuation material is a Ni-Mn-Ga foil of 200 mu m thickness that has been fabricated by cutting of a bulk Ni-Mn-Ga(100) single crystal consisting of 10 M martensite variants at room temperature. Stress-strain experiments on tensile test structures demonstrate that the stress needed for reorientation of martensite variants is about 1.2 MPa. The low twinning stress allows magnetic-field-induced variant switching, the basic mechanism of MSM actuation. A Ni-Mn-Ga foil actuator is fabricated by lithography and hybrid integration. The actuator shows a maximum magneto-strain of 4.9%, which is limited by the constraints of fixation and loading. Upon tensile loading at 1.5 MPa, linear actuation cycles are generated with an actuation stroke of 2.2%. The foil actuator is used as a benchmark system for modeling the coupled magneto-mechanical behavior of MSM actuation. We present finite element simulations based on a thermodynamic Gibbs free-energy model that qualitatively describes the observed tensile stress-dependence of magneto-strain.
