We report the observation of large magnetocaloric effect near room temperature in antipervoskite SnCMn3. The maximal magnetic entropy change at the first-order ferrimagnetic-paramagnetic transition temperature (TC 279 K) is about…
Some recent experimental studies show the invisibility of antiferromagnetic transition in the cases of manganites when their particle size is reduced to nanometer scale. In complete contrast to these cases, we have observed the signature of…
The effect of cobalt and nickel substitutions for manganese on the physical properties of the perovskite manganite La1.2Bi0.8Mn2-x(Ni/Co)xO6+d, with x = 0.0-0.8, has been investigated. It is observed that the ferromagnetism is enhanced, TC…
We have investigated magnetization(M), magnetocaloric effect(MCE) and magnetothermopower(MTEP) in polycrystalline Pr0.6Sr0.4MnO3, which shows a second-order paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transition near room temperature (TC = 305 K).…
Three first order magnetic phase transitions (FOMT) have been detected at TCPr, TNinter and TCinter over the temperature range from 5 K to 340 K at fields up to 9 T in PrMn1.4Fe0.6Ge2, and the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) around these…
We present a study of the magnetocaloric effect in La5/8-yPryCa3/8MnO3 (y=0.3) and Pr0.5Ca0.09Sr0.41MnO3 manganites. The low temperature state of both ystems is the result of a competition between the antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic…
The first order magneto-structural transition ($T_t\simeq95$ K) and magnetocaloric effect in MnNiGe$_{0.9}$Ga$_{0.1}$ are studied via powder x-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. Temperature dependent x-ray diffraction…
A combination of competing exchange interactions and substitutional disorder gives rise to magnetic inhomogeneities in the [Y$_{2-x}$Mn$_x$]MnMnMn$_4$O$_{12}$ $x = 0.23$ and $x = 0.16$ quadruple perovskite manganites. Our neutron powder…
We present a detailed magnetothermal study of Pr$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_{3}$, a perovskite manganite in which an insulator-metal transition can be driven by magnetic field, but also by pressure, visible light, x-rays, or high currents. We…
The magnetocaloric effect in alternating magnetic fields has been investigated in Pr1-xAgxMnO3 manganites with x=0.05-0.25. The stepwise reversal of the sign of the magnetocaloric effect has been revealed in a weakly doped sample (x=0.05)…
Variation of magnetocaloric (MC) effects has been systematically investigated for colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganites R0.6Sr0.4MnO3 (R=La-Gd). As the one-electron bandwidth is reduced, the temperature profile of MC effect, i.e.,…
Magnetic, linear thermal expansion (LTE), anisotropic ($\lambda_t$) and volume ($\omega $) magnetostriction properties of Pr$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$MnO$_3$ were investigated. The LTE decreases smoothly from 300 K without a clear anomaly either…
We report a detailed study of step-like metamagnetic transitions in the magnetization and resistivity of polycrystalline Pr0.5Ca0.5Mn0.95Co0.05O3. The steps have a sudden onset below a critical temperature, are extremely sharp (width < 0.2…
We report on the magnetic entropy change and the critical exponents in the double perovskite manganite Y2NiMnO6 with a ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transition TC=85K. For a magnetic field change of 80kOe, a maximum magnetic entropy change…
We investigated magnetic, magnetotransport and magnetostriction properties of the A-type antiferromagnet Pr$_{0.46}$Sr$_{0.54}$MnO$_3$ which undergoes a first order paramagnetic-antiferromagnetic transition below T$_N$ = 210 K while cooling…
The thermal expansion and magnetic properties of antiperovskite manganese nitrides Ag1-xNMn3+x were reported. The substitution of Mn for Ag effectively broadens the temperature range of negative thermal expansion and drives it to cryogenic…
We have observed a sizable positive magnetocapacitance ($\sim$$5-90\%$) in perovskite Pr$_{0.55}$Ca$_{0.45}$MnO$_3$ and bilayer Pr(Sr$_{0.1}$Ca$_{0.9}$)$_2$Mn$_2$O$_7$ system under 5T magnetic field across 20-100 K below the magnetic…
Structural, magnetic and electric properties of a metal-ordered perovskite YBaMn2O6 have been studied by means of powder X-ray diffraction, DSC, magnetic susceptibility, and electric resistivity. It is found that this material undergoes a…
The temperature dependences of magnetization, electrical transport, and thermal transport properties of antiperovskite compound SnCMn3 have been investigated systematically. A positive magnetoresistance (~11%) is observed around the…
Single crystals of Nd_{1-x}Pb_{x}MnO_{3} with x=0.2 are grown by high temperature solution growth technique using PbO-PbF_{2} flux. Magnetization studies on the samples show a transition to a ferromagnetic state below T_c ~ 125 K and the…
