Field induced metamagnetism and large magnetic entropy change in RRhSi (R = Tb, Dy, Ho) rare earth intermetallics

•Large magnetocaloric effect in DyRhSi and HoRhSi intermetallics is uncovered.•The observed value is higher than reported in other compounds of RTX family.•It is attributed to metamagnetic transition.•Magnetic ordering is confirmed in RRhSi based on DFT+U calculations.•Optical measurements show that...
