Abstract
The spin-reorientation transitions in Tm2Fe17Cx, are analyzed in terms of the crystal field and the Tm-Fe exchange interactions. It is deduc ed that with increasing carbon concentration, the Tm-Fe exchange field decreases slightly, whereas the absolute value of the second-order cr ystal-field parameter increases dramatically. The carbon concentration and temperature dependence of the magnetic anisotropy of the Tm ions in Tm2Fe17Cx are discussed.
