Abstract
In this study, we synthesized nanosized ferromagnetic La0.71Sr0.29Mn0.95Fe0.05O3 (LSMFO) manganites using a modified sol-gel method, followed by annealing at 750 °C. We investigated their magnetic properties, with a specific focus on magnetocaloric properties, as well as their potential application in hyperthermia treatments. Notably, the sample exhibited a second-order magnetic transition, demonstrating significant magnetocaloric properties and a distinct table-like feature over a temperature range of ∼30 K. This behavior was characterized by remarkable relative cooling power (RCP) and refrigerant capacity (RC). To assess the magnetic heating characteristics, we measured the response of the samples in alternating magnetic fields of 30 mT at various frequencies. Additionally, we evaluated the sample’s potential for hyperthermia by determining the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) and Intrinsic Loss Power (ILP) parameters across different frequencies. The results highlighted the sample’s effective heat generation capabilities at various frequencies. These findings support the suitability and applicability of the synthesized nanosized LSMFO manganites for both magnetic refrigeration and hyperthermia applications.
