With the development of magnetic refrigerant technology, magnetic substances with a large magnetocaloric effect (MCE) and nearly zero thermal hysteresis are desired. Although Ni–Mn based Heusler alloys have been found to produce large MCEs and have attracted increasing attention recently, the occurrence of thermal hysteresis accompanying MCE due to the nature of first-order phase transition limits its applications with magnetic refrigeration. Up to now, an effective theory or method to eliminate this thermal hysteresis is still lacking. Here, we propose to utilize the feature of magnetic transition at the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) to eliminate thermal hysteresis and thus design a MPB-involved phase diagram in Heusler alloys of Ni50Mn36Sb14−xInx (x = 0–14). As theoretically expected, the magnetic transition at MPB really yields a MCE with a negligible thermal hysteresis (∼0 K) and the refrigerant capacity arrives at a maximum value of 108.2 J kg−1 at the composition of x = 9. Our findings provide an effective way to design large MCE materials with zero thermal hysteresis.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
