Abstract: | Gd55Co35Mn10 ribbons were prepared by melt-spinning and subsequent crystallization treatment. Crystallization resulted in the precipitation of the Gd3Co-type and Gd12Co7-type phases in the amorphous matrix. Under a magnetic field change of 0–5 T, a table-like magnetocaloric effect, with a maximum magnetic entropy change of in the temperature range of 137–180 K and enhanced refrigerant capacity (RC) of , was achieved in Gd55Co35Mn10 ribbons crystallized at 600 K for 30 min. The table-like feature and enhanced RC values make Gd55Co35Mn10 crystallized ribbons promising for Ericsson-cycle magnetic refrigeration in the temperature range from 137 to 180 K. |
