Magnetic properties of the non-stoichiometric TbCo2Mnx and TbCo2Nix alloys

The crystal structure, magnetic and magnetothermal properties of non-stoichiometric TbCo2Mnx and TbCo2Nix alloys were studied. It was shown that single-phase compounds with the MgCu2-type structure exist up to a certain content of x (x < 0.4 for compounds with Mn and x ≤ 0.1 for compounds with Ni...

Description
Summary:The crystal structure, magnetic and magnetothermal properties of non-stoichiometric TbCo2Mnx and TbCo2Nix alloys were studied. It was shown that single-phase compounds with the MgCu2-type structure exist up to a certain content of x (x < 0.4 for compounds with Mn and x ≤ 0.1 for compounds with Ni). The concentration changes of the lattice parameter, Curie temperature, magnetic moment of the 3d sublattice in TbCo2Mnx and TbCo2Nix alloys were compared. The magnetocaloric effect in alloys were estimated using data of magnetic and heat capacity measurements.
