Variation of magnetocaloric (MC) effects has been systematically investigated for colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganites $R_{0.6}$Sr0.4MnO3 ($R$ = La–Gd). As the one-electron bandwidth is reduced, the temperature profile of MC effect, i.e. field-induced entropy change, exhibits a steeper drop below the ferromagnetic transition temperature due to its first-order nature promoted by a competing charge-orbital ordering instability. For these small-bandwidth systems adjacent to the metal–insulator phase boundary, a rectangular-shaped profile for the entropy change emerges with an anomalously wide temperature range and a considerable magnitude. Model calculations have indicated that the fluctuation enhanced in the phase-competing region has a strong impact on such MC features.
