Abstract

Оver recent years in the process of searching for compounds with high or almost zero magnetostriction values, a number of pseudo-binary Laves RT2 phases with morphotropic phase transitions are attracted particular attention. That is, systems of compounds with a morphotropic phase boundary in the phase diagram. In this paper, the magnetic and magnetostrictive properties of multicomponent systems of compounds Tb0.2Dy0.8-хGdxCo2 and Tb0.2Dy0.8-хGdxCo1.9Al0.1 in which a morphotropic phase transition is observed when replacing dysprosium with gadolinium have been studied. A relationship between the temperature behavior, the sign and magnitude of magnetostrictive deformations, and the type of distortion of the cubic lattice of the studied Laves phases is revealed. In the region of magnetic phase transitions, the magnetocaloric effect was investigated.
