Large reversible magnetocaloric effect in HoMn2O5

Abstract: Magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in polycrystalline HoMn2O5 was investigated by isothermal magnetization curves from 2 K to 50 K. A relatively large magnetic entropy change, ΔSM = 7.8 J/(kg · K), was achieved with the magnetic field up to 70 kOe (1 Oe = 79.5775 A · m−1). The magnetic entropy change is reversible in the whole range of temperature. The contributions of elastic and magnetoelastic energy to the changing of the magnetic entropy are discussed in terms of the Landau theory. The reversibility of MCE with m… Show more

“…The maximum value of ∆S m (-∆S max m ) increases with increase in field and reaches as high as 36 J kg −1 K −1 for a field change of 0-7 T, which is more than double of the previously reported values of ∆S m for other members of the RMn 2 O 5 family. 29,47,48 We would also like to mention that the observed value of ∆S m is significantly larger than that reported for several rare-earth transition metal oxides and intermetallic compounds. [13][14][15][16] A comparative study of ∆S m of GdCrTiO 5 with other rare-earth based oxide compounds at same field and temperature range has been shown in Table I.…”

“…A reversible magnetocaloric effect has also been observed in HoMn 2 O 5 . [6] Moreover, the magnetoelectric coupling effect has also been studied in thin films. [7][8][9] The main structure of all manganese RMn 2 O 5 compounds crystallizes in the isostructural orthorhombic symmetry with space group Pbam.…”

“…Until now, a thorough investigation has been carried out to comprehend the HoMn 2 O 5 (HMO), particularly at low temperature [9][10][11]. HMO gave the series of complex phase transition due to long range ordering in Ho 3+ moments and also by coexistence of the Mn 3+ and Mn 4+ [9]. Moreover, giant magneto caloric effect in HMO has been identified by using the first principles study and Monte-Carlo simulations [12].…”
