In magnetic materials, a large magnetocaloric effect is expected in those with large magnetocrystalline anisotropy in the vicinity of their magnetic phase transition temperature. Here we report a comparative study of rotating magnetocaloric effect in TbMn 1-x Fe x O 3 (x= 0, 0.75) single crystals by rotating them in a constant external field within a c plane from 2 to 50 K. We observed a large magnetic entropy change between a and c axes with strong magnetocrystalline anisotropy in TbMnO 3 as well as TbMn 0.25 Fe 0.75 O 3. For TbMn 0.25 Fe 0.75 O 3, the large magnetocaloric effect appears close to a spin reorientation from Γ 1 (A x, G y, C z) to Γ 4 (G x, A y, F z) magnetic configuration at∼ 16 K, which is distinguished from that of TbMnO 3 near the antiferromagnetic ordering of Tb 3+ ions at∼ 9 K. The maximum of magnetic entropy change and refrigerant capacity of TbMnO 3 (TbMn 0.25 Fe 0.75 O 3) reach as high as 19.20 J/Kg K (14.84 J/Kg K), 411.97 J/Kg (260.80 J/Kg) under 7 T, respectively. Furthermore, using Lorentz transmission electron microscopy technique, we show the TbMn 0.25 Fe 0.75 O 3 material displays a large single domain structure with dimension up to about 3 μm× 3 μm, as an indicative of a large magnetocrystalline anisotropy in this system. Based on nonextensive thermodynamics, we further employ the q-Fermi Dirac statistics to demonstrate the good consistency between computed and experimental results of magnetization versus rotating angles. Our results clearly indicate the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy plays a decisive role in the large differences of the magnetic properties and magnetocaloric properties in TbMn 1-x Fe x O 3 system.
