Recently Ytterbium- and Gadolinium-oxide based frustrated magnets have been characterized as excellent millikelvin adiabatic demagnetization refrigerants. Compared to traditional paramagnetic hydrated salts, they offer several advantages: higher entropy density for similar minimal temperatures, chemical stability and UHV compatibility. We report a comparative study of various different Yb- and Gd-based oxides (including [1-4] and further unpublished results) and analyze the impact of geometrical frustration and site-randomness on their ADR performance.
