Magnetic refrigeration offers an energy efficient & environmental friendly alternative to conventional cooling.However,its adoption depends on materials with tailored magnetic & structural properties.Here a high-throughput computational workflow for the design of magnetocaloric materials is introduced.DFT calculations are used to screen potential c&idates in the family of MM’X (M/M’=metal,X=main group element) compounds.Out of 274 stable compositions,46 magnetic compounds are found to stabilize in both a austenite & martensite phase.Following the concept of Curie temperature window, nine compounds are identified as potential candidates with structural transitions, by evaluating & comparing the structural phase transition & magnetic ordering temperatures.Additionally, the use of doping to tailor magnetostructural coupling for both known & newly predicted MM’X compounds is predicted & isostructural substitution as general approach to engineer magnetocaloric materials is suggested.
