Triangular rare-earth borates for milli-Kelvin adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration — •Philipp Gegenwart — Experimental Physics VI, Center for Electronic Correlations and Magnetism, University of Augsburg

Adiabatic demagnetization refrigeration (ADR) is a classical cooling technique with renewed recent attention as alternative to costly and elaborate 3He/4He dilution refrigeration. Established water containing ADR salts suffer from chemical instability which requires delicate treatment to avoid degradation and ensure good thermal contact. Water-free KBaYb(BO3)2 is an excellent alternative with high entropy density that allows ADR to below 20 mK [1]. Sintered pellets with silver powder admixture to ensure good thermal coupling are easy to manufacture, inexpensive and long-term stable even upon heating up to 700C, enabling also ultra-high vacuum applications. KBaYb(BO3)2 belongs to a family of rare-earth-based borates with triangular arrangement of magnetic moments. We discuss the impact of geometrical frustration and structural randomness on its low-temperature properties and demonstrate the enormous tunability of cooling power and operating temperature by chemical substitution.
