Abstract
Magnetic properties of the Nd‐, Gd‐, Y‐, TbMn2 intermetallic cubic Laves phases have been studied under applied pressure. Large effects of pressure are observed on the ordering temperatures and on the magnetization curves. In all cases the ordering temperatures decrease and the Mn magnetic moment tends to be suppressed with increasing pressure. Results confirm the existence of a critical distance between Mn atoms, for the appearance of a Mn magnetic moment.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
