Abstract :
The R2Fe14-xSixB compounds with R = Pr, Nd, or Er and x \\leq 2 crystallize in the Nd2Fe14B tetragonal structure. The Curie temperature increases by ∼ 17 K when one iron atom is substituted by silicon. In the high iron-concentration range the saturation magnetization decreases according to simple dilution behavior. For silicon content higher than x \\simeq 0.8 a rather large variation of the mean iron moments is observed. The anisotropy fields of Pr- and Nd-based compounds are only slightly dependent on composition. A variation of the spin-reorientation temperature in Nd2Fe14-xSixB and Er2Fe14-xSixB compounds is shown. The magnetic behavior of the compounds studied is analyzed and correlated with their crystalline structures.
