with an S = 5/2 Brillouin function is also shown in a dashed
curve.
expected to be RIn(2S + 1) = 79 J K¹1 kg¹1. The value is
more than 90 % of the observed total entropy change, and
thus, most of the magnetic entropy is concluded to be
responsible for the total entropy change. In normal secondorder magnetic transitions the magnetic entropies are gradually changed below the magnetic transition temperatures.
In the present NdCu3Fe4O12, in contrast, the magnetic
entropy is abruptly yielded by the unusual first-order
magnetic transition induced by the intermetallic-chargetransfer transition.
Because the intermetallic-charge-transfer transition temperature of LnCu3Fe4O12 is changed by the chemical substitution at the A-site,24)26),33) similar fine control of the
effective operating temperature for the thermal control by
the caloric effect is also possible.
