A ternary compound Al3CoNd2 was synthesized and its crystal structure parameters were determined by the Rietveld refinement method based on powder X-ray diffraction data. Results show that the compound crystallizes in the MgCu2-type structure (cubic Laves C15 phase, space group $Fd\bar{3}m$ ), with the lattice parameter of a = 7.8424(2) Ǻ, unit-cell volume of V = 482.33 Å3, and calculated density of Dcalc = 5.90 g.cm−3. The residual factors converge to Rp = 0.1024 and Rwp = 0.1287. The reference intensity ratio value obtained experimentally is 3.03. Magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate an agreement with the Curie–Weiss law in the temperature range of 385–450 K, and paramagnetic Curie temperature of θp = 379.9 K. Both rare-earth elements and cobalt ions contribute to the paramagnetic moment. The saturation magnetic moment and magnetic hysteresis loop were measured for the Al3CoNd2 compound at various temperatures. Results show that the saturation magnetic moment value decreases with an increase in temperature and the compound becomes a ferromagnet below the Curie temperature Tc.

The morphology and magnetic properties of the Ho(Ni0.8Co0.2)­3 crystalline and ball – milled intermetallic compounds are presented. The polycrystalline bulk compound crystallizes in the rhombohedral PuNi3 - type of crystal structure and indicates ferrimagnetic arrangement with the Curie temperature of TC = 48 ± 1 K, the helimagnetic temperature Th = 26 ± 2 K with the total saturation magnetic moment of 7.78 µB/f.u. at 2 K. The use of the HEBM method leads to the formation of nanoflakes with typical thickness of less than 100 nm. The extended milling leads to the reduction in particles/crystallites size and in the emergence of the relatively small coercivity (HC).

(Sm1-xRx)2Fe17 (R = Ho, Er) alloys with х = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 were prepared by induction melting under inert gas atmosphere. The structure and magnetic hysteresis properties of both the initial compositions and hydrides based on them are investigated. It was found that (Sm1-xRx)2Fe17Нy hydrides like the parent compounds have a rhombohedral Th2Zn17-type of crystal structure (sp.gr. R m). Hydrogenation results in a significant increase in the Curie temperature and saturation magnetization at room temperature. Compositions with potentially high magnetic characteristics have been determined.

The crystal structure, microstructure, Curie temperature and magnetocaloric properties of (Mn1-xFex)5Sn3 (x=0.1~0.5) alloys were studied in this paper. The alloys were prepared by powder metallurgy method with magnetic pressing and magnetic sintering. All samples crystallize in the hexagonal InNi2-type structure with space group P63/mmc. The lattice parameter, cell volumes of the (Mn1-xFex)5Sn3 decrease with increasing x, while the Curie temperature of these alloys increases almost linearly with increasing x. All samples exhibit a moderate magnetocaloric effect, and the curves of magnetic entropy change are flat in a wide temperature range, which is suitable for the Ericsson cycle.

We reported the structural, magnetic and magenetocaloric properties of Mn1.25Fe0.75P0. 50Si0.50Bx(x = 0.01, 0.02 and 0.04) X-ray diffraction patterns show that all compounds crystallize in the hexagonal Fe2P-type crystal structure. Lattice parameter a increases while c decreases with increasing B contents. The Curie temperature of the compounds have been determined, the values are 219, 268 and 323.2 K for x = 0.01, 0.02, 0.04, respectively. The maximum magnetic entropy changes in a field change of 0~1.5 T are 6.1, 5.3 and 3.5J/kg·K for x = 0.01, 0.02 and 0.04, respectively.

ABSTRACTThin Fe films, 1 nm to 90 nm, have been grown on GaAs (100) substrates in ultra high vacuum, base pressure = 2×l0−8 Pa. The growth of the films has been followed with Auger electron spectroscopy and a recently developed in-situ UHV M/H hysteresis loop tracer. The Auger signal provides an indication as to when the Fe covers the GaAs substrate or when it clusters into three dimensional islands. The magnetic hysteresis loop tracer provides the coercivity and the saturation magnetic moment, from which the saturation magnetization or average film thickness can be obtained. The coercivity of thin films is sensitive to structure, strain, and to the grain size, in analogy to its sensitivity to particle size for small particles. The data show that the coercivity, Hc, as a function of film thickness, is very sensitive to the annealing procedures and to the resulting morphology, continuous versus local clustering of the iron film. Under proper conditions a clear maximum in Hc versus film thickness is observed for these films near 5 nm thickness, in analogy to three dimensional small particle curves.

The Mo2B2Fe-type intermetallic compounds Gd2Cu2In and Gd2Cu2Mg form a complete set of solid solutions Gd2Cu2In1−xMgx. The a lattice parameter, the Weiss constant and the Curie temperature increase with increasing magnesium content in an almost Vegard-like manner, while the c parameter remains almost constant. All members of the solid solutions show ferromagnetism with TCs between 114 and 80 K.
