The magnetocaloric effect-(MCE) of MgB2 is simulated, considering the effect of sintering temperature on MCE. The results show that MCE of MgB2 samples is an inverse type in a temperature range of diamagnetic-paramagnetic transition. Moreover, the MCE for MgB2 is improved with high sintering temperature. The comparison between MCE of MgB2 samples and other some reported magnetic materials has been done, showing that MCE parameters of MgB2 samples are larger than some MCE parameters of La1-xCdxMnO3, La1.25Sr0.75MnCoO6, Gd1−xCaxBaCo2O5.5, Ni58Fe26Ga28, Ni2+xMn1−xGe, Ge0.95Mn0.05 film, and (001)-oriented MnAs film. It suggested that MgB2 samples could be a promising sharing candidate for MR in cryogenic temperatures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
