Abstract
Low-field dc magnetization measurements on dilute Pd-Co alloys for concentrations between 0.2 and 1.0 at. % Co are presented. It is shown that homogeneous samples display a ferromagnetic transition typical of alloys which develop hysteresis right at the Curie temperature. It is observed that plastic deformation of Pd-Co samples increases their Curie temperature. This is thought to be due to changes in the degree of chemical clustering of Co atoms. Small gradients in chemical concentration and/or degree of clustering considerably broaden the magnetic transition.Keywords
