Tuneable Giant Magnetocaloric Effect in (Mn,Fe)2(P,Si) Materials by Co-B and Ni-B Co-Doping

The influence of Co (Ni) and B co-doping on the structural, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of (Mn,Fe) 2 (P,Si) compounds is investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry, magnetic and direct temperature change measurements. It is found that Co (Ni) and B c...
