Abstract
In this study, magnetic properties of Pr0.67Ca0.33MnO3 compound were investigated in detail. The magnetization versus temperature (M T ) curve showed that this material undergoes a charge order transition at 200 K. A more pronounced FM phase appeared below 56 K. At T = 5 K, a eld induced sharp step like magnetisation transition associated with phase separation was observed. However, after application of 7 T magnetic eld at 5 K, the magnetic behaviour of sample was changed completely and full FM behaviour was observed. The more interesting is that the sample remains in the FM state and does not retrieve the initial magnetic state until warmed up to charge order transition temperature. Large negative magnetic entropy change (−26.18 J/(kg K) at 38 K and 5 T) was attributed to step like magnetisation transition.
