Abstract
In this work, based on composition adjusting and texture control, we demonstrate giant elastocaloric and magnetocaloric effects in a directionally solidified Ni43Mn47Sn10 polycrystalline with strong <001>A texture. On removing a low compressive stress of 210 MPa, giant adiabatic temperature change up to −17.3 K is achieved. Such value is much higher than those in some elastocaloric materials reported previously. Besides, giant magnetic field induced entropy changes of 23.5 Jkg−1K−1 and 37.1 Jkg−1K−1 are also obtained under the magnetic field changes of 2 T and 5 T, respectively. Simultaneously achieving giant elastocaloric and magnetocaloric effects actuated by relatively low external field is of great importance to explore multi-caloric or coupled caloric effects in developing efficient and eco-friendly solid-state refrigeration technology.
