Crystal electric field level scheme leading to giant magnetocaloric effect for hydrogen liquefaction
Magnetic refrigeration materials containing rare-earth ions are promising for hydrogen liquefaction and energy storage applications. Here, the role of crystal-field level splitting on magnetic entropy change is systematically investigated, comparing mean-field calculations with neutron scattering ex...
