Tóm tắt

We have investigated the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of a perovskite oxide, BaFeO3, that shows ferromagnetism by the aid of a small external field of ∼3 kOe (3.5 μB/Fe, TC = 111 K). The magnetization is found to change almost reversibly in both field and temperature cycles. Hence, magnetic and thermal hysteretic losses are negligibly low during refrigeration, a property that is suitable for application. The reversible MCE is likely to arise from the absence of an orbital magnetic moment of Fe ions which are essentially in the Fe3+L state (L: ligand hole). The magnetic entropy change and refrigerant capacity near the TC are ∼5.8 J kg−1 K−1 and ∼172 J kg−1, respectively, both of which are comparable to those of ferromagnetic perovskite manganites. As BaFeO3 contains no rare metals and is stable against corrosion, the material can be regarded as a candidate refrigerant material.
