Abstract

Abstract In this study, we investigated the magnetic properties, magnetocaloric effect, magnetic energy product, and hysteresis behavior of Mn3AlN antiperovskite using Monte Carlo (MC) simulation techniques. We examined the effect of magnetic field on magnetic behavior. As the magnetic field values h increase, the amplitudes of both the specific heat peaks and the susceptibility also increase. For various external magnetic fields and temperatures, we obtained the adiabatic temperature change and the magnetic entropy change. The compound displayed a direct magnetocaloric effect. Furthermore, the relative cooling power (RCP) values for a magnetic field strength of 60 kOe are 117.54 J/kg. The hysteresis loops were used to calculate the energy product BH. These findings suggest that our material is an excellent fit for magnetic refrigeration and information storage applications.
