The relation between the phase transition and the efficiency of frequency doubling was also studied.It was often observed that when the power of the incident light was increased to a certain degree,the conversion efficiency was no longer increased.This mainly because the phase transition temperature of the crystal was lower and phase transition occurred in the crystal.展开更多

The results show that suitable partial substitution of Tb in Gd5Si1.72Ge2.28 compound remains the first-order magnetic-crystallographic transition and enhances the magnetic entropy change, although Tb substitution decreases the Curie temperature (TC) of the compounds. The magnetic entropy change of (Gd1-xTbx)5Si1.72Ge2.28 alloys retains a large value in the low magnetic field of 1.0 T. The maximum magnetic entropy change for (Gd0.80Tb0.20)5Si1.72Ge2.28 alloy in the magnetic field from 0 to 1.0 T reaches 8.7 J/(kg·K), which is nearly 4 times as large as that of (Gd0.3Dy0.7)5Si4 compound (|-Smax| = 2.24 J/(kg·K), T_C = 198 K).展开更多
