Abstract
The structure and magnetic properties of the Nd3Fe27.7-xNixTi1.3compounds prepared by arc-melting method have been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurement. It was found that all the compounds crystallized in Nd3(Fe, Ti)29-type structure with monoclinic symmetry and A2/m space group in concentration range 0.2 ≤x≤ 1.2. The unit cell volume decreased slightly with increasing Ni content. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the magnetically aligned samples showed that all compounds investigated had planar anisotropy. The Spin reorientation phenomena occurred in all the compounds. As the increase of Ni content, the Curie temperature TCmonotonously increased, but the spin reorientation temperature Tsrdid not obviously change. The saturation magnetization Ms of the compounds decreased monotonously with increasing Ni content at 5 K, 105 K, 205 K, and 305 K. The anisotropy fields Baat 5 K, 305 K and anisotropy constant K2at 305K appeared as a minimum, but the anisotropy constant K1at 305 K appeared as a maximum onx= 0.6.
