A combined density functional theory and Monte Carlo study of manganites for magnetic refrigeration

Perovskite oxides such as manganites are considered to be strong candidates for appli- cations in magnetic refrigeration technology, due to their remarkable magnetocaloric properties, in addition to low processing costs. Manganites with the general formula R1-x AxMnO3, particularly for A=Ca and 0.2...
