Abstract
Er20Ho20Dy20Cu20Ni20 high-entropy metallic glass exhibited excellent magnetic refrigeration material with a wide temperature range and high refrigeration capacity(RC)was reported.Er20Ho20Dy20Cu20Ni20 high-entropy metallic glass was observed with typical spin glass behavior around 15.5 K.In addition,we find that the magnetic entropy change(-△SM)originates from the sample undergoing a ferromagnetic(FM)to paramagnetic(PM)transition around 20 K.Under a field change from 0 T to 7 T,the value of maximum magnetic entropy change(-△.SmaxM)reaches 12.5 J/kg·K,and the corre-sponding value of RC reaches 487.7 J/kg in the temperature range from 6 K to 60 K.The large RC and wide temperature range make the Er20Ho20Dy20Cu20Ni20 high-entropy metallic glass be a promising material for application in magnetic refrigerators.
