摘要
Crystal structure, thermodynamic properties, and adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration (ADR) effect in the spin -72 triangular antiferromagnet KBaGd(BO3)2 are reported. With the average nearest-neighbor exchange coupling of 44 mK, this compound shows magnetic order below TN = 263 mK in zero field. The ADR tests reach the temperature of Tmin = 122 mK, more than twice lower than TN, along with the entropy storage capacity of 192 mJ K-1 cm-3 and the hold time of more than 8 h in the PPMS setup, both significantly improved compared to the spin -21 Yb3+ analog. We argue that KBaGd(BO3)2 shows a balanced interplay of exchange and dipolar couplings that together with structural randomness and geometrical frustration shift Tmin to well below the ordering temperature TN, therefore facilitating the cooling.
