Abstract
The synthesis and magnetic and magnetoelastic properties of PrxTb1-xFe 2 and Pr0.15TbxDy0.85-xFe2 are reported. The study on the crystalline structure, magnetization, and Curie temperature shows that PrFe2 has a lattice parameter of 7.463 Angstrom and a magnetic moment of 4.93 mu( B) /f.u. With the addition of Pr, the anisotropy of TbFe2 decreases an d the optimal magnetostriction with low anisotropy occurs on the Tb ri ch side for TbxDy1-xFe2. In addition, measurement of oriented samples has been carried out to analyze the magnetostrictive behavior, (C) 199 8 American Institute of Physics. [S0021-8979(98)01512-6].
