Title: | Magnetocaloric effect as a signature of quantum level-crossing for a spin-gapped system | Authors: | CHAKRABORTY, Tanmoy Mitra, Chiranjib |
Issue Date: | 2019 | Publisher: | IOP PUBLISHING LTD | Source: | JOURNAL OF PHYSICS-CONDENSED MATTER, 31(47) (Art N° 475802) | Abstract: | Recent research dealing with magnetocaloric effect (MCE) study of antiferromagnetic (AFM) low dimensional spin systems have revealed a number of fascinating ground-state crossover characteristics upon application of external magnetic field. Herein, through MCI' investigation we have explored field-induced quantum level-crossing characteristics of one such spin system: NH4CuPO4 center dot H2O (NCP), an AFM spin 1/2 dimer. Experimental magnetization and specific heat data are presented and the data have been employed to evaluate entropy, magnetic energy and magnetocaloric properties. We witness a sign change in magnetic Grtineisen parameter across the level-crossing field B-C. An adiabatic cooling is observed at low temperature by tracing the isentropic curves in temperature-magnetic field plane. Energy-level crossover characteristics in NCP interpreted through MCE analysis are well consistent with the observations made from magnetization and specific heat data. | Notes: | [Chakraborty, Tanmoy; Mitra, Chiranjib] Indian Inst Sci Educ & Res, Nadia 741246, W Bengal, India.
