Analysis of the Anisotropic Magnetocaloric Effect in RMn2O5 Single Crystals

Thanks to the strong magnetic anisotropy shown by the multiferroic RMn2O5 (R = magnetic rare earth) compounds, a large adiabatic temperature change can be induced (around 10 K) by rotating them in constant magnetic fields instead of the standard magnetization-demagnetization method. Particularly, th...
