Magnetocaloric effect and magnetic refrigeration in La0.7Ca0.15Sr0.15Mn1-xGaxO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.1)

In this paper we report magnetic and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) properties for La0.7 (CaSr)0.3Mn1-xGaxO3 (x =0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075 and 0.1) manganites. Our compounds were prepared by sol-gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. The temperature dependence of...
