Magnetocaloric Effect in Ba3RRu2O9 Compounds
Analysis
Key Takeaways
- •The study focuses on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in Ba3RRu2O9 compounds.
- •Different rare-earth elements (Ho, Gd, Tb, Nd) are investigated.
- •The compounds exhibit interesting MCE behavior, including switching between conventional and non-conventional MCE.
- •Ba3NdRu2O9 shows positive MCE.
- •The findings are attributed to temperature-dependent spin reorientations and anisotropy.
“The heavy rare-earth members exhibit an intriguing MCE behavior switching from conventional to non-conventional MCE.”
