摘要:

钆因在表现出磁熵显著变化方面具有卓越能力,成为众多主动磁再生器(AMR)原型中磁制冷材料的首选。这一独特特性源于它作为一种居里温度较高的元素铁磁体,其温度与室温条件高度吻合,并经历二阶磁相变。在这项综合研究中,我们采用密度泛函理论(DFT)计算,探索了钆块体和薄膜构型的结构、电子和磁性特性。我们的主要目标是更深入地理解钪中观察到的引人注目的磁卡特征背后的复杂物理机制。该研究为钆在磁制冷技术领域的潜在应用及更广泛的影响提供了有价值的见解。

英文摘要:

Gadolinium stand as the favored choice among magnetic refrigerant materials for numerous active magnetic regenerator (AMR) prototypes due to its remarkable ability to exhibit a substantial change in magnetic entropy. This unique characteristic arises from its status as one of the elemental ferromagnets with a high Curie temperature, closely aligning with room temperature conditions, and undergoing a second-order magnetic phase transition. In this comprehensive study, we employ density functional theory (DFT) calculations to explore the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of both Gadolinium bulk and film configurations. Our primary objective is to gain a deeper understanding of the intricate physics underlying the intriguing magnetocaloric features observed in Gadolinium. This investigation provides valuable insights into the potential applications and the broader implications of Gadolinium in the realm of magnetic refrigeration technology.
