A Combined Density Functional Theory and Monte Carlo Study of Manganites for Magnetic Refrigeration

ORAL

Abstract

Perovskite oxides are considered to be strong candidates for applications in magnetic refrigeration technology, due to their remarkable properties, in addition to low processing costs. Manganites with the general formula R$_{1-x}$A$_x$MnO$_3$, particularly for A=Ca and $0.2
