Mössbauer study on the pseudobinary Dy (Fe1−x Co x )2 compound with [100] easy direction

Magnetic transitions and magnetostrictive properties of Laves compounds Sm0.88Nd0.12(Fe1−xCox)1.93

“…It is clear that the saturation is not achieved for all samples. For isotropic polycrystalline materials, the saturation value l as for l a is In addition, the relation 9l 111 9E9l 100 9 is observed for high Co contents, similar to that observed also in Dy(Fe 1 À x Co x ) 2 , Sm 0.88 Dy 0.12 (Fe 1 À x Co x ) 2 and Sm 0.9 Pr 0.1 (Fe 1 À x Co x ) 2 systems [12,13,25]. This cannot be explained by the single-ion model, in which it was concluded that the relation 9l 111 9c9l 100 9 is valid for almost all RFe 2 compounds.…”
