摘要
We have investigated the effect of hydrostatic pressure (P) on ferromagnetic (FM) phase transition and magnetocaloric properties of (Sm0.8Nd0.2)(0.52)Sr0.48MnO3 single crystal. At ambient pressure, the system undergoes a first order FM transition associated with large magnetic entropy change (Delta S-M). The temperature distribution of Delta S-M exhibits an asymmetric behavior with respect to T-C. The application of pressure increases magnetization, shifts the FM transition to higher temperature, and weakens the metamagnetism. As a result, vertical bar Delta S-M vertical bar decreases and its thermal distribution becomes more symmetric as compared to P=0. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3431343]
