Multicaloric effect in multiferroic Y2CoMnO6

We have investigated multiple caloric effects in multiferroic Y2CoMnO6. The polycrystalline sample prepared by the solid state method has shown a ferromagnetic Curie temperature similar to 75 K with a second order phase transition; a maximum magneto entropy change (-Delta S-M(max)) of similar to 7.3 J kg(-1) K-1 with a reasonable relative cooling power similar to 220 J kg(-1) is found without thermal and magnetic hysteresis loss. An electric field driven entropy change (-Delta S-E(max)) of similar to 0.26 J m(-3) K-1 was obtained using the Maxwell's relation and estimated magnetically induced a total temperature change of similar to 5.45 K around the Curie temperature that confirms the multicaloric effect in the sample.
