Abstract
In this work, polycrystalline Er2FeCrO6 (EFCO) and Tm2FeCrO6 (TFCO) oxides were fabricated via conventional sol-gel method, and studied with respect of crystal structure together with cryogenic magnetic and magneto-caloric properties. Both oxides are confirmed to exhibit B-site disordered hexagonal perovskite-type crystal structure. Two magnetic transitions around 11.7 and 5.7 K for EFCO, whereas only one transition around 10.5 K for TFCO, have been observed. Both oxides exhibit considerable cryogenic reversible magneto-caloric effects. The values of magnetic entropy change peak and relative cooling power (refrigerant capacity) with 0–5 T magnetic field change reach 11.95 J/kg-K and 215.8 (169.8) J/kg for EFCO, and 4.78 J/kg-K and 123.6 (97.8) J/kg for TFCO, respectively, indicating the present Er2FeCrO6 oxide is also considerable for cryogenic magnetic cooling application.
