Abstract
Measurements of Curie temperature, temperature dependence of magnetiza tion, magnetostriction, and magnetization curve are carried out on Dy0 .9-xPrxTb0.1Fe2 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4) polycrystalline compounds. A de crease of Curie temperature and saturation magnetization caused by the Pr substitution is observed. The calculated first-order anisotropy co nstant of the compounds also decreases with increasing Pr content, whi ch causes the increase of the magnetostriction of the compounds near x = 0.1.
