Understanding the inverse magnetocaloric effect in antiferro- and ferrimagnetic arrangements

Abstract: The inverse magnetocaloric effect occurs when a magnetic material cools down under applied magnetic field in an adiabatic process. Although the existence of the inverse magnetocaloric effect was recently reported experimentally, a theoretical microscopic description is almost nonexistent. In this paper we theoretically describe the inverse magnetocaloric effect in antiferro- and ferrimagnetic systems. The inverse magnetocaloric effects were systematically investigated as a function of the model parameters. The… Show more

“…68 According to the Néel's theory of ferrimagnetism, the observed M(T ) behavior corresponds to that denoted as P type in Néel notation. 67 The parameters that explain this behavior are x = , where μ Er (μ Fe ) and N Er (N Fe ) are the magnetic moments and the number of Er (Fe) atoms, respectively.…”

“…28,29 From Figure 9 we can see that at room temperature LSMO40 and LBMO40 are present in the ferromagnetic state, with LCMO40 in the paramagnetic state. Thus, the application of a magnetic field in the heating experiments causes LSMO40 and LBMO40 to heat up and undergo ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transitions and exhibiting a positive MCE in the process.…”
