Abstract

The structural, magnetic and magnetostrictive properties of Sm(1-x)Ce(x)Fe(2) (0 <= x <= 1) Laves compounds have been investigated. The magnetostriction coefficient lambda(111) and the anisotropy of the Sm(1-x)Ce(x)Fe(2) compounds decrease with increasing Ce content. The decreasing of anisotropy results in an enhancement of the anisotropic magnetostriction at low magnetic fields for the compounds with a small amount of Ce substituted for Sm.
