The criticality-enhanced magnetocaloric effect (MCE) near a field-induced quantum critical point (QCP) in the spin systems constitutes a very promising and highly tunable alternative to conventional adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration. Strong fluctuations in the low-$T$ quantum critical regime can give rise to a large thermal entropy change and thus significant cooling effect when approaching the QCP. In this work, through efficient and accurate many-body calculations, we show there exists a significant inverse MCE(iMCE) in the spin-1 quantum chain materials(CH$_3$)$_4$NNi(NO$_2$)$_3$ (TMNIN) and NiCl$_2$-4SC(NH$_2$)$_2$ (DTN), where DTN has substantial low-$T$ refrigeration capacity while requiring only moderate magnetic fields. The iMCE characteristics, including the adiabatic temperature change $ΔT_{\rm ad}$, isothermal entropy change $ΔS$, differential Grüneisen parameter, and the entropy change rate, are obtained with quantum many-body calculations at finite temperature. The cooling performance, i.e., the efficiency factor and hold time, of the two compounds is also discussed. Based on the many-body calculations on realistic models for the spin-chain materials, we conclude that the compound DTN constitutes a very promising and highly efficient quantum magnetic coolant with pronounced iMCE properties. We advocate that such quantum magnets can be used in cryofree refrigeration for space applications and quantum computing environments.

我们研究了局部3d Cr 3+磁矩部分取代5d Ir 4+位置对Y2 Ir 2 O 7(YIO)烧绿石铱酸盐磁热性能的影响。我们发现,Y2 Ir 2-xCrxO 7(YICO)发生团簇玻璃化转变,可能是由于RKKY一样的本地化的Cr 3+时刻占据烧绿石网络中的随机站点之间的相互作用,介导的5d Ir传导电子。铁磁团簇和反铁磁团簇的共存导致了常规磁热效应和逆磁热效应。我们观察到显着增强传统以及逆MCE与替代。虽然传统的MCE和反MCE在取代的铱酸盐的值不大,效果跨越一个巨大的工作温度窗口,从而导致数量级的增强冷却功率,该值是可比的标准磁热材料。
High-resolution alternating-field technique to determine the magnetocaloric effect of metals down to very low temperatures
磁热效应或“磁格吕奈森比”$Γ_H=T^{-1}(dT/dH)_S$量化了当在绝热条件下改变所施加的磁场时材料的冷却或加热。最近,这一性质在量子临界性领域引起了相当大的兴趣。在这里,我们报告的低频交变场技术的发展,它允许进行连续的温度扫描的$Γ_H(T)$小单晶非常高的精度和非常低的温度。对掺杂YbRh $_2$ Si $_2$的测量表明,用这种方法可以比用磁化强度和比热计算更快、更准确地确定$Γ_H(T)$。
