Magnetocaloric effect in (La0.55Bi0.15)Ca0.3MnO3 perovskites
چکیده انگلیسی

We have studied the magnetocaloric effect of the (La0.55Bi0.15)Ca0.3MnO3 perovskite. This material shows interesting magnetic properties such as its saturation magnetic moment per formula unit of 3.44μB and a magnetic order temperature of 230 K. Below this temperature neutron diffraction experiments show anti-ferromagnetic contributions in the main ferromagnetic structure. The measured heat capacity exhibits a broad jump centred at the Curie temperature. By increasing the magnetic field, the jump shifts to higher temperatures, confirming the ferromagnetic character of the transition. From the total entropy we have determined the isothermal magnetic entropy (ΔSm) and the adiabatic temperature change (ΔTad). We found that both magnitudes display peaks centred at 230 K with maximum values of |ΔSm| = 1.1 J/K mol and ΔTad = 2.3 K at 9 T applied field. Isothermal measurements of magnetization allow us, through thermodynamic Maxwell relation, to determine the isothermal magnetic entropy. The temperature dependence of ΔS is similar to that obtained from Cp although the values are slightly higher. While these values are modest, it is significant that the magnetocaloric effect extends over a large temperature range, showing a good relative cooling power of 190 J/kg at 3 T applied magnetic field.
