Abstract
A series of pseudo-binary Laves phase compounds Sm1−xErxFe2 (x=0.1, 0.2...0.85) have been prepared and investigated. Using the method of x-ray diffractometry, the samples are step scanned with monochromatic Cu radiation at Bragg angle 2θ ranging from 50° to 110°. A detailed report is presented here on the broadening and splitting of the line profiles in some specimens at higher Bragg angles, like the cubic (533), (622), (642), and (731) reflections. The results are discussed in connection with the intrinsic magnetostriction of the material. The Curie temperatures and the room temperature saturation magnetization of the compounds have also been studied.
