摘要: Abstract In the present study we report effect of Ag doping on structural, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties in La0.65Ca0.35−xAgxMnO3 powder samples synthesized using solid-state reaction method at high temperature. Powder X-ray patterns have been analyzed by Rietveld method. With increasing amount, a structural transition from orthorhombic (Pbnm space group) to rhombohedral system ( R 3 ¯ c for x > 0.1 has observed. Magnetization measurements versus temperature applied field 50 mT showed that all our investigated display paramagnetic–ferromagnetic with decreasing The Curie TC increases amount 248 K x = 0–278 K x = 0.2. entropy change, deduced magnetization up 7 T several temperatures exhibits maximum |ΔSm|max which decreases content. is found decrease 1.65 J/kg K x = 0.05–0.89 J/kg K x = 0.2 upon change 1 T while relative cooling power RCP remains almost constant doped samples.
