Description

Magnetic measurements for RCo4M (M=B, Al and Ga; R=Y, Nd and Ho) have been done in order to compare the M-substitution effects on the magnetic properties of RCo5. In the case of M=B, the crystal structure is of CeCo4B-type, while in the case of M=Al and Ga, it is of CaCu5-type. By the B substitution for the Co of RCo5 the magnetic anisotropy of the R sublattice is enhanced for R=Nd, while it seems to be weakened for R=Ho. The Co and R sublattice magnetizations and the exchange interaction between them are also discussed. (orig.)
