Critical behavior and magnetocaloric effect in
Abstract
Here, the critical properties and magnetocaloric effect of semiconducting ferrimagnet Mn3Si2Te6 single crystals have been investigated by bulk magnetization and heat capacity around Tc. Critical exponents β = 0.41 ± 0.01 with a critical temperature Tc = 74.18 ± 0.08 K and γ = 1.21 ± 0.02 with Tc = 74.35 ± 0.05 K are deduced by the Kouvel-Fisher plot, whereas δ = 4.29 ± 0.05 (3.40 ± 0.02) is obtained by a critical isotherm analysis at T = 74(75)K. The magnetic exchange distance is found to decay as J (r) ≈ r-4.79, which lies between the mean-field and 3D Heisenberg models. Moreover, the magnetic entropy change -ΔSM features a maximum at Tc, i.e., -ΔS$$max\atop{M}$$ ~ 2.53 (1.67) J kg-1 K-1 with in-plane (out-of-plane) field change of 5 T, confirming large magnetic anisotropy. The heat capacity measurement further gives -ΔS$$max\atop{M}$$ ~ 2.94 J kg-1 K-1 and the corresponding adiabatic temperature change ΔTad ~ 1.14 K with out-of-plane field change of 9 T.
