1 Experimental and theoretical Studies of the Magnetocaloric Effect (MCE) in the Mn5-xFexSi3 Series
Michael Gottschlich1 Olivier Gourdon1, Michael Ohl1, Jörg Perßon2 1 Jülich Centre for Neutron Science outstation at the SNS at ORNL 2 Peter Grünberg Institut Forschungszentrum Jülich

2 The MCE The MCE is related mostly to the magnetic entropy changes of magnetic materials under the influence of an applied field Tc where the phenomenon occurs DS –MCE obtains DT of the MCE phenomenon MCE of Gd, Gschneider, et al. 2005

3 Application of the MCE T=T1 B = 0

4 Application of the MCE T>T1 B > 0

5 Application of the MCE T=T1 B > 0

6 Application of the MCE T<T1 B = 0

12 Neutron the rescue… …POWGEN at the SNS
to elucidate the coloring problem: Fe vs. Mn on both sites (no discernable by X-ray) to investigate the magnetic ordering …POWGEN at the SNS TOF instrument (ideal for atomic occupation / high Q) high resolution:Δd/d ~0.1% 80000 60000 40000 20000 d [Å] Intensity Diamond pattern collected on POWGEN Schematic view of POWGEN

25 Summary and future direction
the combination of experimental data and theoretical tools lead to a better understanding of the MCE property. chemical substitutions single crystals for further neutron scattering experiments Thank you very much for your attention!
