Heusler alloys are promising for several applications, including magnetic refrigeration, due to high magnetocaloric and magnetovolume effects. One way to optimize this potential is by increasing the magnetovolume effect. Using density…
Magnetic molecules are a class of compounds that is also investigated in view of their magnetocaloric properties. The isothermal entropy change and the adiabatic temperature change are key figures of merit for magnetocaloric performance.…
The interplay of magnetism and topology opens up the possibility for exotic linear response effects, such as the anomalous Hall effect and the anomalous Nernst effect, which can be strongly enhanced by designing a strong Berry curvature in…
Heusler alloys are widely studied due to their interesting structural and magnetic properties, like magnetic memory shape ability, coupled magneto-structural phase transitions and half-metallicity; ruled, for many cases, by the valence…

Ni-Mn based ternary Heusler compounds have drawn attentions lately as significant magneto-caloric effects in some of them have been observed. Substitution of Ni and Mn by other $3d$ transition metals in controlled quantity have turned out…
The magnetic and thermodynamic properties of spin-1/2 Heisenberg diamond chains are investigated in three different cases: (a) J1, J2, J3>0 (frustrated); (b) J1, J3<0, J2>0 (frustrated); and (c) J1, J2>0, J3<0 (non-frustrated). The density…

Hysteresis is more than just an interesting oddity, which occurs in materials with a first-order transition. It is a real obstacle on the path from existing lab-scale prototypes of magnetic refrigerators towards commercialization of this…
Thermoelectricity is a promising avenue for harvesting energy but large-scale applications are still hampered by the lack of highly-efficient low-cost materials. Recently, Fe$_2YZ$ Heusler compounds were predicted theoretically to be…
