Magnetoelastic coupling and tricritical metamagnetism

Magneto-elastic coupling plays a significant role in magnetocaloric materials for magnetic refrigeration at room temperature. It can lead to the existence of a so-called tricritical point where a metamagnetic phase transition changes from first order to second order. Controlling tricriticallity allo...
