Title: Magnetostructural phase transitions and magnetocaloric effect in (Gd_5-xSc_x)Si_1.8Ge_2.2

Abstract

Future advancements in magnetocaloric refrigeration/heat pumping technologies depend on the discovery of new materials that demonstrate large, tunable magnetocaloric effects (MCEs) in the vicinity of coupled magnetic and structural phase transitions that occur reversibly with minimum hysteresis. Here, with this in mind, we investigate phase transitions, microstructure, magnetic, thermal, magnetocaloric, and transport properties of (Gd_5-xSc_x)Si_1.8Ge_2.2 compounds. Replacement of magnetic Gd with non-magnetic Sc in Gd_5-xSc_xSi_1.8Ge_2.2 increases the ferromagnetic to paramagnetic first order phase transition temperature, T_C, with only a minor reduction in MCE when x ≤ 0.2. We also demonstrate that hydrostatic pressure further increases T_C and reduces the hysteresis of the first order phase transition in Gd_4.8Sc_0.2Si_1.8Ge_2.2 from 7 to 4 K. Temperature-dependent x-ray powder diffraction study of Gd_4.8Sc_0.2Si_1.8Ge_2.2 confirms the monoclinic ↔ orthorhombic structural transformation at T_C, in agreement with magnetic, calorimetric, and electrical transport measurements. In addition to the substantial magnetocaloric effect, a large magnetoresistance of ~20% is also observed in Gd_4.8Sc_0.2Si_1.8Ge_2.2 for ΔH = 50 kOe in the vicinity of the magnetostructural transition. Finally, in a drastic reversal of the initial doping behavior further additions of Sc (x > 0.2) suppress formation of the monoclinic phase, change the nature of the transition from first-to second-order, andmore »« less

Magnetocaloric effect in the vicinity of the magnetic phase transition in NdCo_2–xFe_x compounds

Journal Article Murtaza, Adil ; Zuo, Wenliang ; Yaseen, Muhammad ; ... - Physical Review B

In the present paper, the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of NdCo_2-xFe_x (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6) compounds was investigated by magnetization measurements. Here, the temperature-dependent high-resolution synchrotron x-ray diffraction study shows a magnetostructural transition from the paramagnetic cubic phase to the ferromagnetic tetragonal phase below their Curie temperatures. Differential scanning calorimetry analysis shows the absence of thermal hysteresis, indicating the second-order nature of the magnetostructural phase transition in these compounds. The maximum values of magnetic entropy change (ΔS_M) and wide operating temperature (OT) are obtained under a field change of 5 T, which are 7.33 Jkg^-1K^-1, 6.45 Jkg^-1K^-1, 5.71 Jkg^-1K^-1,more »« less

Annealing influence on the magnetostructural transition in Gd₅Si_1.3Ge_2.7 thin films

Journal Article Pires, A. L. ; Belo, J. H. ; Gomes, I. T. ; ... - Materials Letters

Due to the emerging cooling possibilities at the micro and nanoscale, such as the fast heat exchange rate, the effort to synthesize and optimize the magnetocaloric materials at these scales is rapidly growing. Here, we report the effect of different thermal treatments on Gd₅Si_1.3Ge_2.7 thin film in order to evaluate the correlation between the crystal structure, magnetic phase transition and magnetocaloric effect. For annealing temperatures higher than 500ºC, the samples showed a typical paramagnetic behavior. On the other hand, thermal treatments below 500ºC promoted the suppression of the magnetostructural transition at 190 K, while the magnetic transition around 249 Kmore »« less

Gd₅(Si,Ge)₄ thin film displaying large magnetocaloric and strain effects due to magnetostructural transition

Journal Article Hadimani, Ravi L. ; Silva, Joao H. B. ; Pereira, Andre M. ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

Magnetic refrigeration based on the magnetocaloric effect is one of the best alternatives to compete with vapor-compression technology. Despite being already in its technology transfer stage, there is still room for optimization, namely, on the magnetic responses of the magnetocaloric material. In parallel, the demand for different magnetostrictive materials has been greatly enhanced due to the wide and innovative range of technologies that emerged in the last years (from structural evaluation to straintronics fields). In particular, the Gd₅(Si_xGe_1–x)₄ compounds are a family of well-known alloys that present both giant magnetocaloric and colossal magnetostriction effects. Despite their remarkable properties, very fewmore »« less

Evidence for a short-range chemical order of Ge atoms and its critical role in inducing a giant magnetocaloric effect in Gd₅Si_1.5Ge_2.5

Journal Article Kou, Ronghui ; Gao, Jianrong ; Nie, Zhihua ; ... - Journal of Alloys and Compounds

Crystal structure and magnetic properties of Gd₅Si_1.5Ge_2.5 and Gd_4.9Zr_0·1Si_1.5Ge_2.5 were investigated using high-energy X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. Results showed that a Zr substitution for 2% Gd reduces unit cell volumes of a room-temperature monoclinic and a low-temperature orthorhombic lattice and a difference between them at a magnetostructural transition. At a microscopic level, the Zr substitution increases length of disconnected interlayer T–T bonds of the monoclinic lattice at the expense of length of connected interlayer T–T bonds (T = Si, Ge). These opposing changes of the interlayer T–T bonds provided evidence for existence of a short-range chemical order of Gemore »« less

Enhancing Magnetic Functionality with Scandium: Breaking Stereotypes in the Design of Rare Earth Materials

Journal Article Mudryk, Yaroslav ; Paudyal, Durga ; Liu, Jing ; ... - Chemistry of Materials

Replacement of strongly magnetic gadolinium with weakly magnetic scandium unexpectedly enhances ferromagnetic interactions in (Gd_1–xSc_x)₅Ge₄. Based upon this counterintuitive experimental finding we demonstrate the unique role 3d¹ electrons of scandium atoms play in mediating magnetic interactions between the gadolinium atoms from the neighboring layers in the Sm₅Ge₄-type crystal lattice. Scandium substitutions at and below 20% rapidly increase the Curie temperature, TC, of the Gd₅Ge₄ parent, eliminate both the kinetic arrest and hysteresis, and drastically improve reversibility of the first-order magnetostructural transformation at T_C. In agreement with first-principles predictions, higher than 20% Sc leads to the formation of a closely relatedmore »« less
