Article Abstract

The development of magnetocaloric materials with a significantly enhanced volumetric cooling capability is highly desirable for the application of adiabatic demagnetization refrigerators in confined spatial environments. Here, the thermodynamic characteristics of a magnetically frustrated spin-7/2 Gd[SiO]O is presented, which exhibits strongly correlated spin disorder below ≈1.5 K. A quantitative model is proposed to describe the magnetization results by incorporating nearest-neighbor Heisenberg antiferromagnetic and dipolar interactions. Remarkably, the recorded magnetocaloric responses are unprecedentedly large and applicable below 1.0 K. It is proposed that the S = 7/2 spin liquids serve as versatile platforms for investigating high-performance magnetocaloric materials in the sub-kelvin regime, particularly those exhibiting a superior cooling power per unit volume.

The present research introduces a novel strategy for tuning magnetic properties by overcoming the compositional limitation of stoichiometric intermetallic compounds via extension of their compositional domain into the valence electron-per-atom () parameter space. Focusing on approximant crystals (ACs), a "double heterovalent elemental substitution" is employed in a stoichiometric Ga-Pt-Gd 2/1 AC whereby is lowered from approximately 1.98 to 1.

This study systematically investigates the impact of Cu doping on the structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of CuCoCrO nanoparticles synthesized via a solution combustion method. Cu incorporation up to = 20% induces a progressive structural transformation from a cubic spinel to a trigonal corundum phase, as confirmed by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. The doping process also leads to increased particle size, improved crystallinity, and reduced agglomeration.

There has been considerable interest in the recent advances in synthetic micro/nanomotors in diverse biofluids due to their potential biomedical applications. However, the propulsion of existing micro/nanomotor platforms for delivery in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is inefficient. Herein, we present a magnetically and chemically actuated micromotor-tableted pill that can be actively retained in the GI tract .

We systematically investigate the magnetization and thermodynamic responses associated with the antiferromagnetic (AFM) transitions in magnetic semiconductor EuInAs. The linear thermal expansion measurements reveal thataxis expands whereasandaxes contract with the onset of the two AFM transitions atTN1andTN2. Using a simplified mean-field model incorporating AFM exchange interactions, easy-axis anisotropy, and Zeeman coupling, we analyze the potential magnetic structure change associated with the spin-flop and spin-flip transitions in field.
