摘要：
The magnetocaloric effect in RCu2Ge2 (R = Dy-Tm) was investigated by means of specific heat measurements. The compounds order antiferromagnetically at 6.2 K (DyCu2Ge2), 5.6 K (HoCu2Ge2), 3.0 K (ErCu2Ge2), and 3.9 K (TmCu2Ge2), and some of them exhibit additional magnetic transitions in the ordered state. In an external magnetic field the low-temperature specific heat changes significantly, which can be attributed to metamagnetic-like transitions. In this temperature region, the investigated samples show distinctly different magnetocaloric effect.
