The giant magnetocaloric effect occurs when a magnetic material undergoes a first-order magnetic transition, which usually involves the coupling of magnetic and lattice contributions [1]. In order to investigate in detail the evolution of the magnetostructural phase transition, both magnetocaloric (dT(H)) and magnetovolume (dV(H)) effects in La1.7Fe11.6Si1.4 alloy were measured simultaneously. We observed that under isothermal conditions, only heat transfer occurs first, whereas the structural transition takes place in higher fields, where the heat transfer is already in progress or almost completed. The shift between the magnetic and structural transitions is 0.27 T, which clearly indicates a decoupling effect. The decoupling effect was also confirmed by X-ray absorption (lattice contribution) and by magnetic circular dichroism (change in magnetic system). We will discuss different reasons for the decoupling effect. [1]V. K. Pecharsky et al., Physical Review Letters. 91 (2003) 197204.
