Abstract
Magnetostrictive properties of (Tb/sub 0.5/Dy/sub 0.5/)/sub 1-x/RE/sub x/Fe/sub 1.9/ (x=0-0.05, RE=Y, Ce, Sm, Gd, Ho, Yb) polycrystalline compounds were studied. Each rare-earth element formed a RE-Fe/sub 2/ Laves compound with a different lattice spacing. Corresponding to this difference, (Tb/sub 0.5/Dy/sub 0.5/)/sub 0.95/RE/sub 0.05/Fe/sub 1.9/ alloys showed a variation in lattice spacing as a result of the substitution of rare-earth elements and the prestress dependence of magnetostriction changed noticeably. In the case of Y, Sm, and Gd substitution, which showed greater lattice spacing than that of the Tb/sub 0.5/Dy/sub 0.5/Fe/sub 1.9/ alloy, the prestress dependence and maximum magnetostriction decreased. On the other hand, in the case of Ce, Ho, and Yb substitution, which showed a decrease in lattice spacing, the conspicuous prestress dependence was the same as that of the Tb/sub 0.5/Dy/sub 0.5/Fe/sub 1.9/ alloy and the maximum magnetostriction was greater than that of the latter alloy.
