Abstract
Low magnetic field magnetocaloric (MC) properties of La1-xSrxCoO3 (x=0.3 and 0.5) near phase transition from a ferromagnetic to a paramagnetic state were investigated. It is shown that the change of Sr content allows MC effect in La1-xSrxCoO3 to be tunable, which is more practical for construction of MC refrigeration. MC properties of the x=0.5 sample are significantly greater than that of the x=0.3 one. Furthermore, the results show that MC properties of La1-xSrxCoO3 samples are significantly larger, and comparable with some MC properties of many materials like Gd1-xCaxBaCo2O5.5 and Ge0.95Mn0.05. Keywords: magnetocaloric effect, La1-xSrxCoO3, magnetic entropy change.
