Magnetothermal properties of Ho 1-x Dy x Al 2 (x = 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.25 and 0.50) compounds

Magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of H o 1 - x D y x A l 2 compounds with x = 0 , 0.05 , 0.10 , 0.15 , 0.25 and 0.50 , modelled using a Hamiltonian that includes the exchange interactions between Ho-Dy, Ho-Ho and Dy-Dy ions in addition to the crystalline electric field and the Zeeman effects, have been compared with those determined experimentally. In order to reproduce experimentally observed global ferromagnetic ordering temperatures and spin reorientation transition temperatures as x Dy varies, the exchange interactions between Ho-Dy and Ho-Ho were set as free parameters and adjusted to match the experimental results. We demonstrate that heat capacity of polycrystalline materials in non-zero magnetic fields can be satisfactory reproduced by using the average of multiple magnetic field directions with respect to the crystallographic coordinate system, while reasonably good agreement between experimentally determined and theoretically predicted magnetocaloric effects can be achieved considering an average of only three field directions.
