Koblischka, Anjela Koblischka-Veneva This is a preprint; it has not been peer reviewed by a journal. https://doi.org/ 10.21203/rs.3.rs-5180118/v1 This work is licensed under a CC BY 4.0 License Status: Posted Version 1 posted You are reading this latest preprint version Abstract The development of new materials showing the magneto-caloric effect (MCE) requires fast and reliable characterization methods. For this purpose, a phenomenological model developed by M. A. Hamad has proven to be a useful tool to predict the magnetocaloric properties (the isothermal magnetic entropy change, Δ S M , the magnetization-related change of the specific heat, Δ C P,H , and the relative cooling power, RCP) via calculation from magnetization measurements as a function of temperature, M(T) . However, fitting the M(T) data is difficult for broad, smoothed-out transition curves which are often observed for material systems such as core-shell nanoparticles, nanowires, nanowire fabrics or nanoparticle hybrid materials. Thus, in this contribution we present a different approach enabling proper fitting of such magnetization data via the use of the asymmetric Boltzmann sigmoid function. As examples, we present fits to M(T) curves of polycrystalline, bulk La 0.67 Ba 0.33 MnO 3 as well as La 1-x Sr x MnO 3 (x = 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) and La 0.7 Ca 0.3 MnO 3 nanostructured materials from various authors.
