Abstract
Magnetostriction and magnetomechanical coupling coefficient have been measured on Ho0.85Tb0.15Fe2−xCox (x=0, 0.5, and 1.2) alloys. The alloys were prepared by arc melting as well as by arc melting followed by zoning using induction furnace. Saturation magnetostriction (λs) and magnetomechanical coupling coefficient are found to decrease with the increase of cobalt concentration. The λs values of the zoned samples of x=0 and 0.5 are seen to be more than those of arc melted samples whereas, it is otherwise in the case of x=1.2. Magnetomechanical coupling coefficient values for all the samples are seen to increase with zoning. Change in the easy direction of magnetization in the case of x=1.2 is reflected in the magnetostriction of zoned samples.
