However, the standard version of DFT usually does not include temperature effects and thus encounters difficulties in describing the thermodynamics of (multi-)caloric effects. <strong>In this project we use a disordered local moment (DLM) theory, one of the few existing theoretical frameworks that expands DFT to model magnetic materials at finite temperature from first principles [1,2,3].<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"fletxa_anterior\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The magnetic properties of a solid are dictated by the magnetic interactions between the atoms, which depend on their positions and distances giving rise to strong couplings of magnetism with the crystal structure of the material. For this reason, the vibrations of atoms caused by thermal excitations, i.e. the phonons, may also affect the material&#8217;s magnetism and consequent caloric effects. However, the current version of our computational tool does not incorporate this interaction. <strong>A main goal of MULTICALORICS project is the development of a new method to calculate the effect of phonons on magnetism and caloric responses.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"fletxa_anterior\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Research prior to this project has shown a potential coupling of phonons to magnetism in Mn3AN materials, where &#8220;A&#8221; can be a combination of transition metals and semiconducting elements. Mn3AN is a famous class of magnetic materials thanks to its gigantic caloric effects and possible tuning via chemical doping [4,5]. In the MULTICALORICS project we have the ambition to predict the best multicaloric conditions in these materials for their subsequent experimental analysis in the group of functional materials and phase transitions of the UB.<\/p>\n<p>[1] B.
