DyFe[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]O3 (x[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0, 0.025, 0.075, 0.15) polycrystalline samples were prepared using a traditional solid-state reaction route. The structural, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of these samples were investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the samples exist as single-phase crystallines without peaks. The results of the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) revealed that the average size of the polycrystalline particles decreased from 4.34 to 3.00 [Formula: see text]m as the Mn doping amount increased from 0.00 to 0.15. The magnetization versus temperature (M[Formula: see text]−[Formula: see text]T[Formula: see text]) plots showed that the order temperature of dysprosium (Dy) ions gradually decreased and the Morin-like transition temperature moved to the high-temperature region as x increased. The T[Formula: see text] gradually decreased from 13 to 10 K and the isotropic interaction of Fe[Formula: see text]-Fe[Formula: see text] was weakened as x increased from 0.00 to 0.15. The polycrystalline samples appeared as pre-formed clusters. The magnetization (M[Formula: see text]−[Formula: see text]H[Formula: see text]) plots revealed that all the samples underwent a first-order magnetic phase transition. The maximum magnetic entropy change, occurring near the Curie temperature, obtained at a magnetic-field span of 7 T, was 18.2 J/kg K. The maximum cooling capacity of the polycrystalline DyFe[Formula: see text]Mn[Formula: see text]O3 (x[Formula: see text]=[Formula: see text]0, 0.025, 0.075, 0.15) samples was 441 J/kg.

We report on a new method for preparation the magnetocaloric alloy Gd5Si4. By mechanical alloying under argonatmosphere and then melting sample by arc furnace, we produced the Gd5Si4 alloy. The structure and magnetothermalproperties of the alloy have been investigated with the help of powder X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements.This compound crystallized in the orthorhombic structure with space group pnma. In X-ray powder diffraction pattern, aminor orthorhombic GdSi2 phase was observed as a second phase. For this compound, the second order phase transitionwas observed. The maximum isothermal magnetic entropy change of the Gd5Si4 compound at 348K was found to be -10J/(kg K) in an applied field of 0.5T.

A study of crystalline structure, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of Dy(Co1-хFeх)2 (х = 0.10, 0.15) intermetallic compounds was undertaken. Phase composition was controlled by X-ray diffraction analysis. Magnetic properties were measured with a help of SQUID magnetometer in magnetic fields up to 7 Т in the temperature range from 4.2 K to 400 K. Magnetic transition temperatures from paramagnetic to magnetically ordered state were inferred as 288 K and 350 K, respectively. It is shown that at an increase of iron concentration and/or magnetic field intensity, a considerable maximum broadenings on a temperature dependence of magnetic entropy change is observed. The calculated value of the relative cooling power (RCP) of Dy(Co0.90Fe0.10)2, in a magnetic field of 1.7 T is equal to 152 J/kg that is close to that for Gd metal with RCP = 181 J/kg at μ0Н = 2 T.

Abstract Double perovskite Eu2NiMnO6 (ENMO) Gd2NiMnO6 (GNMO) and Tb2NiMnO6 (TNMO) ceramic powder have been synthesized by solid-state reaction and their crystal structure, microstructure, cryogenic magnetic properties, and magnetocaloric performance have been investigated. Structural studies by using X-ray diffraction shows that all compounds crystallize in the monoclinic structure with a P21/n space group. A ferromagnetic to paramagnetic (FM-PM) second-order phase transition occurred in ENMO, GNMO, and TNMO around 143, 130, and 112 K, respectively. The values of maximum magnetic entropy change and relative cooling power at an applied field of 5 T are found to be 3.2, 3.8, 3.5 J/kgK and 150, 182, 176 J/kg respectively, for the studied sample. The change in structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric effect ascribed to the superexchange mechanism of Ni2+ – O – Mn3+ and Ni2+ – O – Mn4+. Due to different atomic size of Eu, Gd, Tb changes the ratio of Mn4+/Mn3+ which is responsible for the variation of properties significantly in double perovskite.

In this paper the results of specific magnetization and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) measurements for Gd(Co1-xFex)2 system upon the Co substitution by Fe for the x = 0 ÷ 0.60 range are presented. Phase composition was controlled by X-ray diffraction analysis. MCE has been studied within the temperature range of 300-850 K in magnetic fields up to 17 kOe by the magnetic entropy change calculation (ΔSm). It was found that in contrast to the previously studied R(Co-Fe)2 compounds where R = Dy, Ho, Er, an ordinary symmetrical peak of ΔSm(T) in the vicinity of TC is observed for presented samples. Additionally, the MCE comparison of Gd(Co0.88Fe0.12)2 with that for the isostructural Gd(Ni0.88Fe0.12)2 compound having a plateau-like ΔSm temperature dependence is given. The obtained results are discussed.

Polycrystalline perovskite-type manganite La0.65Sr0.2Na0.15MnO3 was prepared by sol-gel method. An X-ray diffraction measurement showed that the sample was a single phase. The Curie temperature of the sample was determined to be 350K. The maximum magnetic entropy change |ΔSM| corresponding to a 1T magnetic field variation was found to be 1.08 J/kg K and about 40.6 J/kg of relative cooling power was obtained near the Curie temperature. The first-order or the second-order on the phase transition of the manganite was distinguished by Banerjee criteria.

We report magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of polycrystalline series of the (Ho0.9Er0.1)1-xGdxCo2(x = 0.05, 0.1 and 0.15) solid solutions. These samples were synthesized using high purity rare earth metals and cobalt. X-ray diffraction patterns taken at room temperature reveal that all compounds have the C15 cubic Laves phase structure. Magnetization measurements were carried out using a vibration sample magnetometer with a step motor in fields up to 14 T using a Bitter-type magnet. Heat capacity measurements have been performed in the temperature range of 2-300 K without magnetic field and in a magnetic field of 1 and 2 T. The magnetocaloric effect has been estimated in terms of isothermal magnetic entropy change for all solid solutions in magnetic fields up to 3 T. The effect of increasing Gd amount in (Ho0.9Er0.1)1-xGdxCo2on the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties will be discussed.

The structural and magnetic property of Gd5Si1.99Ge2Zn0.01and Gd5Si2Ge2 alloys prepared by arc-melting the starting materials with commercial available purity (99.95wt%) was investigated by x-ray diffraction and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer. The result shows that the Gd5Si1.99Ge2Zn0.01alloy has monoclinic phase with Gd5Si2Ge2-type structure. The polymorphic orthorhombic phase with Gd5Si4-type structure coexists with the monoclinic phase in Gd5Si2Ge2alloy. The addition of small Zn element in Gd5Si2Ge2alloy results in a considerable enhancement of its magnetocaloric effect. The maximum magnetic entropy change rapidly increases from 5.03J/(kg K) to 20.70J/(kg K) for a magnetic field change from 0 to 1.5T. The magnetic order temperature is 278K in Gd5Si1.99Ge2Zn0.01alloy and 278.5K in Gd5Si2Ge2 alloy respectively. The magnetocaloric effect of Gd5Si2Ge2 with the small addition of Zn is significantly improved.

AbstractWe report the structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of Bismuth (Bi)-substituted manganite La0.85-xBixNa0.15MnO3 (x=0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.25, and 0.3). X-ray diffraction data implicates the rhombohedral structure with $$ R\overline{3}c $$ R 3 ¯ c space group. Bi2O3 has helped in ensuring phase pure, densified compounds even at low sintering temperature and hence avoiding the evaporation of volatile sodium. The increase in grain size and decrease in magnetic transition temperature (TC) are due to the Bi chemical activity and electronic structure. The samples have shown indirect magnetic transformation from soft ferromagnet to canted ferromagnet/antiferromagnet with Bi. Griffiths phase-like behavior in the inverse magnetic susceptibility was observed for x=0.1; with further increase in Bi, the samples are found to develop the antiferromagnetic competing phase. The phenomenological model was used to model the thermomagnetic behavior of all the samples. The sample with x=0.1 shows an increase in magnetic entropy change upon Bi substitution and the maximum of magnetic entropy change is seen at 275K emphasizing its potential in room temperature magnetic refrigeration.

The magnetic phase transitions and magnetocaloric properties of Gd5Si0.4In3.6 compound have been investigated. Magnetothermal measurements performed at different conditions reveal that the sample undergoes two magnetic phase transitions. One is a second-order transition from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic state at about 197 K, the other is a first-order transition when the temperature is reduced to 75 K. The magnetocaloric effect around Curie temperature (TC) was calculated in terms of isothermal magnetic entropy change by using Maxwells equation,which remains over a quite wide temperature span of 70 K between the temperature region from160 to 240 K, and thus makes this material attractive for magnetic refrigerator applications.
