Publication Narrow transitional hysteresis in (Mn -Cr-Co) 2 Sb pnictides for room-temperature magnetic refrigeration(Publishing, 2019-04-10) Tekgül, Atakan; Acet, Mehmet; Scheibel, Franziska; Farle, Michael; Tekgül, Atakan; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen-Edebiyat Fakültesi/Fizik Bölümü; 0000-0001-6737-3838; P-2124-2016Mn1.96-xCrxCo0.04Sb with x = 0.05 and 0.09 has been investigated for its magnetocaloric properties using structural, magnetization and calorimetric methods. These compounds exhibit an antiferromagnetic-ferrimagnetic transition of which the temperature can be adjusted by the Cr concentration. The transition temperature is at room temperature for x = 0.09. Magnetocaloric properties are presented as entropy-change and direct temperature-change. We show that these compounds have a narrow transitional hysteresis and exhibit the inverse magnetocaloric effect. We find a nearly hysteresis-free transition with a 2.6 K temperature-change around 287 K making it attractive for magnetic-cooling.
