Thecrystal properties have been investigated by x-ray diffraction technique that shows the sample is inrhombohedral structure with R3?c space group. In addition to this structure, small amount of reflections belongsto GdMn2O5 phase is detected. Scanning electron microscope images show that the sample is constituted fromsquare shaped grains. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy analysis shows that the sample includes all expectedelements. The sample exhibits magnetic phase transition from ferromagnetic to paramagnetic phase at around149 K temperature. Applied field dependence of magnetization under isothermal process M(H) shows that thenature of the phase transition is second order and maximum magnetic entropy change (-?SM) value calculatedfrom M(H) curves is found as 1.73 J/kgK under 50 kOe external magnetic field change.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNanobilim ve NanoteknolojiFizikKatı HalFizikAtomik ve Moleküler KimyaFizikokimyaKimyaİnorganik ve NükleerArticle412240629004939
