摘要

In this work, we investigated the XRD patterns, magnetic measurements, and critical phenomena of La0.8 Na0.2 Mn1–x GaxO3 (x = 0, 0.025). The samples crystallize in the rhombohedral structure with R-3C symmetry. Magnetic data show that the compounds undergo a ferromagnetic-paramagnetic phase transition around the Curie temperature (TC). We observed that TC decreases from 297 to 290 K with 0.025 of Ga doping. Additionally, the magnetic entropy change (ΔSM) reaches its highest values around TC during the order-disorder transition. At a Magnetic field of 5 T, −ΔSM is 4.5 J·kg−1·K−1 for the parent compound and 4.3 J·kg−1·K−1 the doped sample. However, the relative cooling power (RCP) increases with the Ga doping, with RCP values of 279 J·kg−1 and 299 J·kg−1 for x = 0 and 0.025 respectively. We confirmed that both materials undergo a second-order magnetic phase transition based on the universal master curve and the Banerjee criteria. From the critical behavior analysis, we found that the samples conform well to the mean-field model with (β = 0.49 and 0.48, γ = 1 and 0.95; δ equal to 2.87 and 3.10 for x = 0 and 0.025, respectively).
