Abstract
Structural and magnetic properties of the GdMn1-xCoxSi compounds with x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 have been investigated. All the compou nds investigated are isotypical and crystallize in the tetragonal PbFC l-type structure. The GdMn1-xCoxSi compounds exhibit ferromagnetic cou pling. Substitution of Co for Mn leads to a decrease of the unit-cell volume, of the saturation magnetization at 1.5 K and of the Curie temp erature. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A.
