Giant Magnetocaloric Effect in Gd 5 \(Si 2 Ge 2 \)
TL;DR: An extremely large magnetic entropy change has been discovered in magnetic materials when subjected to a change in the magnetic field as mentioned in this paper, which exceeds the reversible magnetocaloric effect in any known magnetic material by at least a factor of 2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent developments in magnetocaloric materials
TL;DR: The recent literature concerning the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) has been reviewed and correlations have been made comparing the behaviours of the different families of magnetic materials which exhibit large or unusual MCE values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetocaloric effect and magnetic refrigeration
TL;DR: In this article, the magnetocaloric effect along with recent progress and future needs in both the characterization and exploration of new magnetic refrigerant materials with respect to their magnetoric properties are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetic phase transitions and the magnetothermal properties of gadolinium
TL;DR: A study of four Gd samples of different purities using ac susceptibility, magnetization, heat capacity, and direct measurements of the magnetocaloric effect in quasistatic and pulse magnetic fields revealed that all techniques yield the same value of the zero-field Curie temperature of 294(1) K as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetocaloric effect from indirect measurements: Magnetization and heat capacity
TL;DR: In this article, an approach to calculate the magnetocaloric effect from the combined heat capacity and magnetization data is proposed, based on the assumption that heat capacity is magnetic-field independent.
