Abstract

Magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects of Pr₆Co_1.67Si₃ compound have been investigated by magnetization measurements. The saturation moment at 5 K is found to be 10.7μ_B. The compound undergoes two magnetic transitions below Curie temperature T_C = 48 K and shows a reversible second-order magnetic transition around T_C. A magnetic entropy change ΔS = 6.9 J/(kg K) is observed for a magnetic field change from 0 to 5 T. The full width at half maximum of the ΔS peak is found to be about 38 K.
