We report on various approaches to control the antiferro-ferromagnetic transition temperature of Mn1.2Co0.8Si0.2P0.8 and related materials for magnetocaloric applications. The effects of the Si substitution, Mn/Co ratio and B addition/substitution on MnCoP have been characterized ...
Mn1.000Fe0.950P0.595Si0.330B0.075compounds have been synthesized by high-energy ball milling and a subsequent solid-state reaction. The influence of the sintering conditions on the magnetic phase transition of Mn1.00Fe0.95P0.595Si0.33B0.075samples has been systematically investig ...
Magnetic refrigeration near room temperature is considered as environmentally benign alternative for the current compressor based cooling technology. Two materials that are based on ferromagnetic transition metal compounds are considered as the most promising candidates to be use ...
An unconventional phenomena is observed at the first-order magnetic transitions in (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) materials. Here, we show that the first crossing of the transition upon cooling is associated with an abnormal temperature increase. While differential scanning calorimetry can detec ...
Given the potential applications of (Mn,Fe2(P,Si))-based materials for room-temperature magnetic refrigeration, several research groups have carried out fundamental studies aimed at understanding the role of the magneto-elastic coupling in the first-order magnetic transition and ...
The lattice dynamics in MnFe0.95Si0.50P0.50 were investigated experimentally using Fe57 nuclear inelastic scattering and inelastic x-ray scattering across the first-order magnetic transition which occurs close to room temperature. The lattice dynamics characterization was support ...
Recently, materials undergoing a first-order magnetic transition (FOMT) near room temperature have attracted much attentions due to the possibility to use their large magnetocaloric effect (MCE) for magnetic refrigeration [1]. Among them, the MnFe(P, X) (X = As, Ge, Si, B) family ...
