CsDy(MoO₄)₂ belongs to the family of binary alkaline rare-earth molybdates, with detectable low-temperature structural phase transitions, caused by the cooperative Jahn-Teller effect. Magnetocaloric studies of a single crystal of CsDy(MoO₄)₂ have been performed in the temperature range from 2 K to 18 K in magnetic fields up to 7 T applied along the crystallographic a axis. The maximum value of the isothermal entropy change is about 8 J/(kgK) and was achieved already in the fields above 2 T. The observed results suggest that the studied system can be used as a magnetic refrigerant at helium temperatures.
