The study reveals that the distorted double-perovskite Gd2ZnTiO6 shows promising magnetocaloric properties as a potential refrigerant material for the liquefaction of helium, with significant magnetic entropy change and cooling power compared to traditional refrigerants.
Herein, we report on the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of a distorted double-perovskite, Gd2ZnTiO6, through static magnetization and heat capacity measurements, and mean-field analysis. The most pronounced isothermal magnetic entropy change -Delta S-M, and relative cooling power RCP are found to be 53.5 J K-1 kg(-1) and 620.6 J kg(-1), respectively, under a field change of 9 T at 3.1 K with a large adiabatic temperature change T-ad of 23.7 K, far exceeding the commercial cryo-coolant Gd3Ga5O12 (GGG). The results suggest that Gd2ZnTiO6 is a potential working refrigerant material for the targeted liquefaction of helium.
