The structure, Curie temperatures and magnetostriction of the alloys D
y0.9-xTbxPr0.1Fe1.85, Dy1-xTbx(Fe0.9Mn0.1)(1.8) and Dy0.9-xTbxPr0.1(Fe
0.9Mn0.1)(1.8) have been investigated, These alloys are essentially si
ngle phase with cubic Laves structure. The lattice parameters and Curi
e temperatures increase steadily with increasing Tb content, The Tb de
pendence of the magnetostriction in various applied fields for polycry
stalline Dy0.9-xTbxPr0.1Fe1.85 and Dy0.9-xTbxPr0.1(Fe0.9Mn0.1)(1.8) al
loys exhibits peaks at x = 0.25 and 0.3, respectively. From a comparis
on of Dy1-xTbxFe2 and Dy1-xTbx(Fe0.9Mn0.1)(2), it appears that the add
ition of Pr shifts the magnetocrystalline anisotropy compensation comp
osition to lower Tb contents.
