| contents | This research paper investigates new and first insights into the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of one-dimensional (1D) cobalt ferrite CoFe2O4 (CFO) nanofibers elaborated by sol gel based electrospinning technique, particularly focusing on their behavior at low temperatures for specific applications. The calcined CFO nanofibers microstructural, structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties were explored. The nanofibers (NFs) microstructure, with an average diameter of 210 nm, was examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopies (SEM, TEM). The X-ray diffraction (XRD) of the CFO nanofibers showed a pure cubic close-packed (c.c.p) spinel crystalline structure with the F d 3 -m space group. The Raman spectroscopic studies further confirm the cubic inverse spinel phase. The Magnetic properties were explored as a function of temperature, ranging from 10 to 300 K, a ferromagnetic behaviour was observed with the highest saturation magnetization of 75.87 emu g(-1) and a coercivity of 723 Oe at room temperature. The variation of the magnetic entropy was measured indirectly using the Maxwell approach with an increasing magnetic field. A maximum of Delta(S)=1.71 J K-1 was reached around 32 K. At 180 K, the associated adiabatic temperature change, Delta (Tmax), was 0.93 K, with a large RCP value of 7.58 J kg-1 was measured, which is reasonably high for the corresponding nanoparticles (NPs). This work may suggest that 1D CFO nanofibers offer a promising route for the production of nanostructured magnetic materials, potentially impacting various electronic and electromagnetic device applications at low temperatures. |
