Large magnetocaloric effects in magnetic intermetallics: First-principles and Monte Carlo studies
We have performed ab initio electronic structure calculations and Monte Carlo simulations of frustrated ferroic materials where complex magnetic configurations and chemical disorder lead to rich phase diagrams. With lowering of temperature, we find a ferromagnetic phase which transforms to an antife...
