摘要

The cryogenic magnetocaloric (MC) properties in many Gd-based magnetic oxides have been intensively determined recently, with the aim of developing high-performing materials for magnetic refrigeration (MR) applications. Herein, we synthesized the Gd7BP2O17 via a solid-state reaction route and experimentally investigated its structure, elemental valence states, magnetism, and cryogenic MC responses. The Gd7BP2O17 oxide crystallizes in the monoclinic structure (space group: P21/c, no. 14) and its constituent elements are with the forms of Gd3+, B3+, P5+, and O2−. A remarkable reversible MC effect was realized in Gd7BP2O17 oxide around 3.3 K with a maximum magnetic entropy change, refrigerant capacity, and relative cooling power of 37.35 J/kg·K, 328.07 J/kg, and 430.89 J/kg under 0–7 T magnetic field variation, respectively. These deduced MC parameters are at a similarly high level with most recently realized high-performing Gd-based magnetic oxides, making the present Gd7BP2O17 oxide considerable for practical application.
