Abstract:Abstract.The structural and magnetic properties of the compounds NdMn 2-x V x Si 2 have been studied by x-ray and high resolution neutron powder diffraction, specific heat, dc magnetization, and differential scanning calorimetry measurements over the temperature range 3-450 K. The Curie temperature and Néel temperature of layered NdMn 1.9 V 0.1 Si 2 are been indicate at T C ~ 24 K and T N ~ 376 K respectively. The giant magnetocaloric effect (GMCE) around T C is found in layered NdMn 1.9 V 0.1 Si 2 associated … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
