Abstract

We report the structural, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of $Sr_{1.8}Pr_{0.2}FeMo_{1-x}W_xO_6$($0.0{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$) samples prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method. The X-ray diffraction analysis confirms the formation of the tetragonal double perovskite structure with a I4/mmm space group in all the synthesized samples. The temperature dependent magnetization measurements reveal that all the samples go through a ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase transition with an increasing temperature. The Arrott plot obtained for each synthesized sample demonstrates the second order nature of the magnetic phase transition. A magnetic entropy change is obtained from the magnetic isotherms. The values of maximum magnetic entropy change and relative cooling power at an applied field of 2.5 T are found to be $0.40Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}$ and $69Jkg^{-1}$ respectively for the $Sr_{1.8}Pr_{0.2}FeMoO_6$ sample. The tunability of magnetization and excellent magnetocaloric features at low applied magnetic field make these materials attractive for use in magnetic refrigeration technology.
