Cryogenic magnetic refrigerants based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) hold significant potential as substitutes for the expensive and scarce He-3. Gd(III)-based complexes are considered excellent candidates for low-temperature magnetic refrigerants. We have synthesized a series of Ln(III)-based metal-organic framework (MOF) (Ln = Gd/Dy) by the slow release of oxalates in situ from organic ligands (disodium edetate dehydrate (EDTA-2Na) and thiodiglycolic acid).

Magnetocaloric high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have recently garnered significant interest owing to their potential applications in magnetic refrigeration, offering a wide working temperature range and large refrigerant capacity. In this study, we thoroughly investigated the structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties of equiatomic GdDyHoErTm HEAs. The as-cast alloy exhibits a single hexagonal phase, a randomly distributed grain orientation, and complex magnetism.

Adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration (ADR) based on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is a promising technique to achieve cryogenic temperature. However, magnetic entropy change (Δ), the driving force of ADR, remains far below theoretical -Δ = ln(2 + 1)/ for most magnetic refrigerants. Here, we report giant MCE in orthorhombic EuCl, where a ferromagnetic ground state with excellent single-ion behavior of Eu and free spins has been demonstrated by combining calculations with Brillouin function analysis and magnetic measurements.

The reaction of MnCl·4HO with HL ((1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)methanol) and pdH (1, 3 propanediol) in a basic MeCN solution results in the formation of a mixed-valence [Mn] cationic cluster and two [MnCl] counter anions. The metallic skeleton of the cluster describes two geometrically equivalent mixed-valent, linked [Mn Mn ] supertetrahedra in which nearest-neighbor metal ions have a different oxidation state. Magnetic susceptibility, magnetization data and heat capacity measurements support evidence of predominant ferromagnetic correlations, leading to a = 22 spin ground state for the [Mn Mn ] supertetrahedra, which are pair-linked by a weak antiferromagnetic coupling.

Dense metal-organic frameworks with high spin paramagnetic nodes are competitive materials for cryogenic magnetic refrigeration, particularly in applications for which local cooling is advantageous. We focus on obtaining thin films of gadolinium formate, which has a large volumetric magnetocaloric effect. Continuous and homogeneous deposits of gadolinium formate are successfully formed on silicon by means of aerosol jet printing, with control over the film thickness from 0.
