Abstract:
A method of preparing a boron-doped transition metal pnictide magnetocaloric material, the method including: contacting a transition metal halide; a pnictogen element, a pnictogen oxide, or a combination thereof; a boron-containing oxide; and a reducing metal to provide a mixture; and heat treating the mixture to prepare the boron-doped transition metal pnictide magnetocaloric material.
