Abstract:
Single-crystalline sample of Nd2Co7 (T-C 613 K) has been used to study ``anisotropic{''} magnetocaloric effect (MCE), originated from field induced rotation of the magnetic moment from easy-to hard-magnetization direction. Anisotropy constants were estimated using measured magnetization isotherms within 200-320 K temperature range, which encompasses two spontaneous spin-reorientation phase transitions. These data allow us to calculate the magnetic entropy and ``anisotropic{''} MCE using simple thermodynamic model. Thus obtained MCE was successfully compared with MCE calculated by means of the Maxwell relation. Main differences between ``anisotropic{''} MCE and MCE concerned with magnetizing of ferromagnetic substances near their Curie temperatures have been revealed. In spite of rather low characteristic values (Delta S = -0.005 MJ/Km(3), Delta T = 0.4 K at 235 K and Delta S = 0.005 MJ/Km(3), Delta T = -0.44 K at 250 K on the field change of 1 T) observed in Nd2Co7, intrinsic properties of the ``anisotropic{''} MCE were found to be rather good: it may be a flat function of temperature, rotation of the moment can be completed in the moderate fields, neither temperature nor field hysteresises has been observed. Furthermore, the peak values of the ``anisotropic{''} MCE are not limited by equation restricting MCE in the common ferromagnetic materials.
