摘要
A study of the magnetocaloric effect in the serie Er1-xTbxCo2 (x = 0.8 and 1) of polycrystalline samples was performed. From magnetization messurements under different applied fields. it was Possible to calculate the change of magnetic entropy of each sample due to a change in magnetic field. We obtained a large value for the magnetocaloric potential in such compounds. comparable to those of rare-earth alloys. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
