Abstract

Polycrystalline samples of the Pr1−xBaxMnO3 were prepared by solidstate synthesis method. Effects of A site barium doping on the magnetocaloric effect of Pr1−xBaxMnO3 have been investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns indicate that these samples have orthorhombic structure with the Pbnm space group. By varying, the concentration of alkaline earth dopant on the A site, magnetization behavior and Curie temperature Tc has been examined. Above 40 % doping of barium, a combination antiferromagnetic (AFM)–ferromagnetic (FM) cluster arises which suppress the magnetocaloric effect in the sample. The maximum magnetization obtained is 47 emu/g at 166 K, for 40 % of barium concentration with the highest Tc of 195 K. The highest value of magnetic entropy \(\left |{\Delta } S\right |\) and relative cooling power (RCP) obtained was 2.4 J/kg/K and 81.70 J/kg, respectively.
