The coexistence of the charge-ordered phase and the ferromagnetic phase has a strong effect on the magnetocaloric property of the nanocrystalline Pr0.65(Ca0.6Sr0.4)0.35MnO3 of average particle size 36 and 78 nm. The temperature dependence of the magnetic entropy change shows a tablelike behavior for the sample with a lower average particle size, for which the refrigerant capacity is significantly enhanced in comparison with the other.
