Influence of Ni content on structural, magnetocaloric and electrical properties in manganite La0.6Ba0.2Sr0.2Mn1−xNixO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.1) type perovskites

Résumé

We present a detailed study on the physical properties of La0.6Ba0.2Sr0.2Mn1xNixO3 samples (x ¼ 0.00, 0.05 and 0.1). The ceramics were fabricated using the sol–gel route. Structural refinement, employing the Rietveld method, disclosed a rhombohedral R3c phase. The magnetization vs. temperature plots show a paramagnetic–ferromagnetic (PM–FM) transition phase at the TC (Curie temperature), which decreases from 354 K to 301 K. From the Arrott diagrams M2 vs. m0H/M, we can conclude the phase transition is of the second order. Based on measurements of the isothermal magnetization around TC, the magnetocaloric effects (MCEs) have been calculated. The entropy maximum change (ΔDSM) values are 7.40 J kg-1 K-1, 5.6 J kg-1 K-1 and 4.48 J kg-1 K-1 , whereas the relative cooling power (RCP) values are 232 J kg-1, 230 J kg-1 and 156 J kg-1 for x ¼ 0.00, 0.05 and 0.10, respectively, under an external field (m0H) of 5 T. Through these results, the La0.6Ba0.2Sr0.2Mn1-xNixO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.1) samples can be suggested for use in magnetic refrigeration technology above room temperature. The electrical resistivity (r) vs. temperature plots exhibit a transition from metallic behavior to semiconductor behavior in the vicinity of TM–SC. The adiabatic small polaron hopping (ASPH) model is applied in the PMsemiconducting part (T > TMS). Throughout the temperature range, r is adjusted by the percolation model. This model is based on the phase segregation of FM-metal clusters and PM-insulating regions.
