摘要
Magnetic properties and magnetic entropy changes of La(Fe_(1-x)Mn_x)_(11.5)Si_(1.5)H_y compounds are investigated. Their Curie temperatures are adjusted to room temperature by partial Mn substitution for Fe and hydrogen absorption in 1-atm(1 atm = 1.01325×10~5Pa) hydrogen gas. Under a field change from 0 T to 2 T, the maximum magnetic entropy change for La(Fe_(0.99)Mn_(0.01))_(11.5)Si_(1.5)H_(1.61)is-11.5 J/kg. The suitable Curie temperature and large value of ?S_m make it an attractive potential candidate for the room temperature magnetic refrigeration application.
