RESUMO
Recent experimental data revealed that the compounds La[Fe(x)Si(1-x)]13 and Mn[As(1-x)Sb(x)], present great values for the isothermal entropy change and the adiabatic temperature change. They also showed that the magnetocaloric effect in these compounds can be easily tuned through doping and external pressure. Therefore, such experimental data, which need a theoretical description indicate that these compounds are also good candidates to study the barocaloric effect. In this PhD thesis, we studied from the theoretical point of view the magnetocaloric effect in the compounds La[Fe(x)Si(1-x)]13 and Mn[As(1-x)Sb(x)], at ambient pressure and upon external pressures. We also studied the barocaloric effect,for some fixed values of the model, of only one lattice.(2)a more elaborated itinerant model with two sublattices including the chemical disorder in one sulattice. (3) model of localized magnetic moments. Our results show that the available experimental data of the magnetocaloric potentials are well explained by the three models. However, only the two sublattice itinerant model properly describes the physical mechanisms involved in the magnetocaloric effect of the studied compounds.The localized magnetic moment model fails in explaining the magnetic entropy at high temperatures and the saturation magnetization at T = 0 K. The effective one lattice itinerant model does not properly describe the eletronic transfer between the sublattices.
