Abstract
This paper reports a special magnetic field-controlled share memory behavio r in single crystalline Ni52.5Mn23.5Ga24 upon the martensitic transformatio n. By selecting the strength and the direction of the magnetic field, the m agnitude and direction of the share deformation can be changed optionally, showing a "multi-freedom" shape deformation.
