We present a comparative investigation of singlet ground state induced magnetism for singlet, doublet and triplet excited CEF states of non-Kramers f-electrons relevant primarily for Pr- and U- based compounds. This type of magnetic order…
The quantum magnetism in a three-singlet model (TSM) with singlet crystalline electric field (CEF) states interacting on a lattice is investigated, motivated by its appearance in compounds with 4f^2 and 5f^2 electronic structure. Contrary…
We consider the effects of the magnetic field on the frustrated phase states of the dilute Ising chain, especially, the behavior of the magnetic entropy change and the isentropic dependence of the temperature on the magnetic field, which…
The influence of hyperfine coupling to nuclear spins and of their quadrupolar splitting on the induced moment order in singlet ground state magnets is investigated. The latter are found among non-Kramers f electron compounds. Without…
In this paper, a theoretical journey from electronic to magneto-caloric effect has been shown through the magnetic properties of aluminium induced yttrium chromate. The ground state electronic band structure and density of states have been…
We present a study of the magnetocaloric effect in metallic systems exhibiting first-order magnetic transitions and focus on consequences of magnetic phase separation. We account for ferrimagnetic, ferromagnetic, and Neel antiferromagnetic…
The intriguing interplay between competing degrees of freedom in frustrated magnets can lead to non-trivial magnetic phenomena with exotic low-energy excitations that are highly relevant for addressing some of the fundamental questions in…
The RE$_{5}$Pt$_2$In$_4$ (RE = Gd-Tm) rare earth compounds have been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) as well as by DC and AC magnetometric measurements. The compounds crystallize in an orthorhombic crystal structure of the…
The presence of a quantum critical point (QCP) can significantly affect the thermodynamic properties of a material at finite temperatures T. This is reflected, e.g., in the entropy landscape S(T, r) in the vicinity of a QCP, yielding…
Solid state-refrigerants have generated worldwide interest owing to their growing potential for use in efficient and green cooling devices. Caloric effects could be obtained by manipulating their degrees of freedom such as magnetization,…
An external magnetic field induces large relative changes in the entropy of one-dimensional quantum spin systems at finite temperatures. This leads to a magnetocaloric effect, i.e. a change in temperature during an adiabatic…
We report the magnetic, thermal, magnetocaloric and transport properties of polycrystalline NdCuSi. The compound shows a weak antiferromagnetic ordering, as confirmed by different measurements. Arrott plots indicate that the magnetic phase…
The magneto-electrocaloric effect which can be defined as the coupling between magnetocaloric and electrocaloric effects attracts currently considerable attention due to the advantages provided by the caloric effect in designing solid-state…
The magnetocaloric effect in exchange-coupled synthetic-antiferromagnet multilayers is investigated experimentally and theoretically. We observe a temperature-controlled inversion of the effect, where the entropy increases on switching the…

We show that the low-temperature physics of molecular nanomagnets, contrary to the prevailing one-molecule picture, must be determined by the long-range magnetic ordering due to many-body dipolar interactions. The calculations here…
The ground state of the stacked triangular antiferromagnet CsFeBr$_3$ is a spin singlet due to the large single ion anisotropy $D(S^z)^2$. The field-induced magnetic ordering in this compound was investigated by the magnetic susceptibility,…
