We show that the first order magneto-structural phase transitions observed in various
classes of magnetic solids are often accompanied by useful multi-functional properties …

Abstract (MnFe) 2 (P, Si)-type compounds are, to date, one of the best candidates for
magnetic refrigeration and energy conversion applications due to the combination of giant …

Temperature dependent diffuse reflectance spectroscopy measurements were carried out
on polycrystalline samples of BaTiO 3 across the tetragonal to cubic structural phase …

The transition toward a carbon-neutral society based on renewable energies goes hand in
hand with the availability of energy-efficient technologies. Magnetocaloric cooling is a very …

We report studies on a magnetic glass formed by the arrest of the ferromagnetic-metallic to
antiferromagnetic-insulating transition in a manganite around half doping, La 0.5 Ca 0.5 Mn …

A detailed investigation of the first-order ferrimagnetic (FRI) to antiferromagnetic (AFM)
transition in Mn 1.85 Co 0.15 Sb is carried out. These measurements demonstrate …

Control over the different electronic states in mixed valent manganites advances the
development of oxide based electronic devices. In this context, carrier density is one of the …

Abstract We show that Pr 0.5 Ca 0.5 MnO 3 with 2.5% Al substitution and La 0.5 Ca 0.5 MnO
3 (LCMO) exhibit qualitatively similar and visibly anomalous M–H curves at low temperature …

We report magnetocaloric effect in polycrystalline La 0.7− x Pr x Ca 0.3 MnO 3 (x= 0.0, 0.25,
0.3, 0.35, 0.4, and 0.45) samples. The magnetic entropy change (ΔS m) was measured …

Magnetic field-induced transitions (metamagnetic transitions) play an important role in
defining functionality of various classes of magnetic materials. Rare earth manganites …
