Magnetic entropy change and magnetic phase transition of LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx （x=0-0.8） compounds

The unit cell volume and phase transition temperature of LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx compounds have been studied. The magnetic entropy change, refrigerant capacity and the type of magnetic phase transition are investigated in detail for LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx with x=0.1, All the LaFe11.4Al1.6Cx （x=0-0.8） compounds have the cubic NaZn13-type structure. The addition of carbon atoms brings about a considerable increase in the lattice parameter. The bulk expansion results in the change of phase transition temperature （Tc）, Tc increases from 187K to 269 K with x varying from 0.1 to 0.8, Meanwhile an increase in the lattice parameter can also cause a change of the magnetic ground state from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic. Large magnetic entropy change IASI is found over a large temperature range around Tc and the refrigerant capacity is about 322J/kg for LaFe11.4Al1.6C0.1. The magnetic phase transition belongs in weakly first-order one for x=0.1.     

Magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects in NaZn13-type La（Fe, Al）13-based compounds

In this article,our recent progress concerning the effects of atomic substitution,magnetic field,and temperature on the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of the LaFe13-xAlx compounds are reviewed.With an increase of the aluminum content,the compounds exhibit successively an antiferromagnetic(AFM) state,a ferromagnetic(FM) state,and a mictomagnetic state.Furthermore,the AFM coupling of LaFe 13-xAlx can be converted to an FM one by substituting Si for Al,Co for Fe,and magnetic rare-earth R for La,or introducing interstitial C or H atoms.However,low doping levels lead to FM clusters embedded in an AFM matrix,and the resultant compounds can undergo,under appropriate applied fields,first an AFM-FM and then an FM-AFM phase transition while heated,with significant magnetic relaxation in the vicinity of the transition temperature.The Curie temperature of LaFe13-xAlx can be shifted to room temperature by choosing appropriate contents of Co,C,or H,and a strong magnetocaloric effect can be obtained around the transition temperature.For example,for the LaFe 11.5Al1.5C0.2H1.0 compound,the maximal entropy change reaches 13.8 J·kg-1 ·K-1 for a field change of 0-5 T,occurring around room temperature.It is 42% higher than that of Gd,and therefore,this compound is a promising room-temperature magnetic refrigerant.     

GREAT MAGNETIC ENTROPY CHANGE IN La(Fe, M)13 (M=Si, Al) WITH Co DOPING

Very large magnetic entropy change Δ S_M, which originates from a fully reversible second-order transition at Curie temperature T_C, has been discovered in compounds La(Fe, Si)₁₃, La(Fe, Al)₁₃ and those with Co doping. The maximum change ΔS_M\approx19 J·kg^-1·K^-1, achieved in LaFe_11.4Si_1.6 at 209K upon a 5T magnetic field change, exceeds that of Gd by more than a factor of 2. The T_C of the Co-doped compounds shifts to higher temperatures. ΔS_M still has a considerable large magnitude near room temperature. The phenomena of very large ΔS_M, convenience of adjustment of T_C, and also thesuperiority of low cost, strongly suggest that the compounds La(Fe, M)₁₃ (M=Si, Al) with Co doping are suitable candidates for magnetic refrigerants at high temperatures.     

Large magnetic entropy change near room temperature in the LaFe11.5Si1.5H1.3 interstitial compound

The LaFe_11.5Si_1.5H_1.3 interstitial compound has been prepared. Its Curie temperature T_C (288 K) has been adjusted to around room temperature, and the maximal magnetic entropy change (|ΔS|～17.0 J·kg^-1·K^-1 at T_C) is larger than that of Gd (|ΔS|～9.8 J·kg^-1·K^-1 at T_C=293 K) by ～73.5% under a magnetic change from 0 to 5 T. The origin of the large magnetic entropy change is attributed to the first-order field-induced itinerant-electron metamagnetic transition. Moreover, the magnetic hysteresis of LaFe_11.5Si_1.5H_1.3 under the increase and decrease of the field is very small, which is favourable to magnetic refrigeration application. The present study suggests that the LaFe_11.5Si_1.5H_1.3 compound is a promising candidate as a room-temperature magnetic refrigerant.     

The studies of high-temperature and short-time annealing,phase transition process,and magnetic property for LaFe11.7Si1.3 compound

The high-temperature phase transition is analyzed according to the DSC of as-cast LaFe_11.7 Si_1.3 compound and the X-ray patterns of LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compounds prepared by high-temperature and short-time annealing. Large amount of 1:13 phase begins to appear in LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compound annealed near the melting point of LaFeSi phase (about 1422?K). When the annealing temperature is close to the temperature of peritectic reaction (about 1497?K), the speed of 1:13 phase formation is the fastest. The phase relation and microstructure of the LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compounds annealed at 1523?K (5?h), 1373?K (2?h)?+?1523?K (5?h), and 1523?K (7?h) +1373?K (2?h) show that longer time annealing near peritectic reaction is helpful to decrease the impurity phases. For studying the influence of different high-temperature and short-time annealing on magnetic property, the Curie temperature, thermal, and magnetic hystereses, and the magnetocaloric effect of LaFe_11.7Si_1.3 compound annealed at three different temperatures are also investigated. Three compounds all keep the first order of magnetic transition behavior. The maximal magnetic entropy change ΔS_M (T, H) of the samples is 12.9, 16.04, and 23.8?J?kg^?1?K^?1 under a magnetic field of 0–2?T, respectively.     

Magnetic transitions in LaFe13−x−yCoySix compounds

The magnetic properties of a set of LaFe_13?x?yCo_ySi_x compounds (x = 1.6 ? 2.6; y = 0, y = 1.0) have been investigated using magnetic measurements, thermal expansion, ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy and high resolution neutron powder diffraction methods over the temperature range 10–300 K. The natures of the magnetic transitions in these LaFe_13?x?yCo_ySi_x compounds have been determined. The Curie temperatures of LaFe_13?xSi_x were found to increase with Si content from T_C = 219(5) K for Si content x = 1.6 to T_C = 250(5) K for x = 2.6. Substitution of Co for Fe in LaFe_10.4Si_2.6 resulted in a further enhancement of the magnetic ordering temperature to T_C = 281(5) K for the LaFe_9.4CoSi_2.6 compound. The nature of the magnetic transition at the Curie temperature changes from first order for LaFe_11.4Si_1.6 to second order for LaFe_10.4Si_2.6 and LaFe_9.4CoSi_2.6. The temperature dependences of the mean magnetic hyperfine field values lead to T_C values in good agreement with analyses of the magnetic measurements. The magnetic entropy change, ?ΔS_M, has been determined from the magnetization curves as functions of temperature and magnetic field (ΔB = 0 ? 5 T) by applying the standard Maxwell relation. In the case of LaFe_12.4Si_1.6 for example, the magnetic entropy change around T_C is determined to be -ΔS_M ～ 14.5 J kg^?1 K^?1 for a magnetic field change Δ B = 0 ? 5 T.     

La(Fe,Si)13-based magnetic refrigerants obtained by novel processing routes

The structure and magnetic properties of LaFe_13−xSi_x and Co-substituted LaFe_11.8−xCo_xSi_1.2 alloys prepared by melt spinning, as well as of LaFe_11.57Si_1.43H_x hydrides prepared by reactive milling are investigated. The hysteresis in the temperature- and field-induced phase transitions is significantly reduced as compared with conventional bulk alloys, which makes these materials very attractive for magnetic refrigerant applications. The unusual combination of features characteristic of first- and second-order phase transitions in the La(Fe,Si)₁₃-based compounds is discussed on the basis of density-functional electronic structure calculations.     

Double magnetic entropy change peaks and high refrigerant capacity in Gd1-xHoxNi compounds in the melt-spun form

Gd_1-xHo_xNi melt-spun ribbons were fabricated by a single-roller melt spinning method. All the compounds crystallize in an orthorhombic CrB-type structure. The Curie temperature (T_C) was tuned between 46 and 99 K by varying the concentration of Gd and Ho. A spin reorientation (SRO) transition is observed around 13 K. Different from T_C, the SRO transition temperature is almost invariable for all compounds. Two peaks of magnetic entropy change (ΔS_M) were found. One at the higher temperature range was originated from the paramagnet-ferromagnet phase transition and the other at the lower temperature range was caused by the SRO transition. The maximum of ΔS_M around T_C is almost same. The other maximum of ΔS_M around SRO transition, however, had significantly positive relationship with x. It reached a maximum about 8.2 J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹ for x = 0.8. Thus double large ΔS_M peaks were obtained in Gd_1-xHo_xNi melt-spun ribbons with the high Ho concentration. And the refrigerant capacity power reached a maximum of 622 J kg⁻¹ for x = 0.6. Gd_1-xHo_xNi ribbons could be good candidate for magnetic refrigerant working in the low temperature especially near the liquid nitrogen temperature range.     

Magnetoresistances and magnetic entropy changes associated with negative lattice expansions in NaZn13-type compounds LaFeCoSi

Magnetoresistances and magnetic entropy changes in NaZn13-type compounds La（Fel-xCox）11.9Si1.1 （x=0.04, 0.06, and 0.08） with Curie temperatures of 243 K, 274 K, and 301 K, respectively, are studied. The ferromagnetic ordering is accompanied by a negative lattice expansion. Large magnetic entropy changes in a wide temperature range from ～230 K to ～320 K are achieved. Raising Co content increases the Curie temperature but weakens the magnetovolume effect, thereby causing a decrease in magnetic entropy change. These materials exhibit a metallic character below Tc, whereas the electrical resistance decreases abruptly and then recovers the metal-like behaviour above Tc. Application of a magnetic field retains the transitions via increasing the ferromagnetic ordering temperature. An isothermal increase in magnetic field leads to an increase in electrical resistance at temperatures near but above Tc, which is a consequence of the field-induced metamagnetic transition from a paramagnetic state to a ferromagnetic state.     

Reduction of hysteresis loss in LaFe11.7Si1.3Hx hydrides with significant magnetocaloric effects

Magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects (MCEs) have been investigated in hydrogenated LaFe_11.7 Si_1.3H _x (x=0,1.37, and 2.07) compounds. It is found that the Curie temperature, T _C, can be tuned from 192 to 338 K by adjusting the hydrogen content from 0 to 2.07. It is attractive that both thermal and magnetic hysteresis are remarkably reduced because of the weakness of the itinerant-electron metamagnetic transition after hydrogenation. The maximal hysteresis loss at T _C decreases from 33.4 to 8.8 J/kg as x increases from 0 to 2.07. For the samples with x=0,1.37, and 2.07, the maximal values of the isothermal magnetic entropy change, ΔS _M, are 20.9, 15.1, and 15.83 J/kg K for the increasing field and 20.76 J/kg K, 14.53 J/kg K and 15.61 J/kg K for the decreasing field at T _C, with efficient refrigeration capacities of 439, 330, and 304 J/kg for a field change of 0–5 T, respectively. Large reversible MCE and small hysteresis with considerable refrigeration capacity indicate the potential of LaFe_11.7Si_1.3H _x hydride as a candidate magnetic refrigerant around room temperature.
