| Abstract: | The crystal structure, itinerant-electron metamagnetic transition (IEMT) and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in the iron-based rare-earth intermetallic compound La0.8Ce0.2Fe11.4Si1.6 have been investigated. The powder X-ray diffraction revealed that the ingot of La0.8Ce0.2Fe11.4Si1.6 annealed at 1373 K in vaccuum for only 5 days could be crystallized in the cubic NaZn13-type structure. The La0.8Ce0.2Fe11.4Si1.6 compound exhibited giant values of the isothermal entropy change ΔS M around the Curie temperature T c (about 186 K). And the maximum value |ΔS M|max is about 78.29 J/(kg·K) under a field change of 0–3 T, which can be calculated by the magnetization isotherms around T c. Such a large MCE is attributed to the sharp change of magnetization and susceptibility around T c and the first-order magnetic transition of field-induced IEMT above T c. |
