Magnetocaloric effect and thermal transport management in lanthanum manganites
This thesis investigates two challenges associated with the use of manganites for magnetocaloric applications. The first challenge is associated with methods to engineer the thermal conductivity, K. The second challenge is to understand the limits of the entropy change achievable in magnetocaloric m...
