Structure of the alloys and phase diagram of the thulium-germanium system

Ternary system Tm–Cu–Ge: isothermal section of the phase diagram at 870 K and crystal structures of the compounds

“…So, according to [1], five binary compounds form in the Tm-Cu system. The phase diagram of the Tm-Ge system was constructed by Eremenko et al [2] and eight binary phases have been reported. Recently, Venturini et al [3] reinvestigated the crystal structure of the non-stoichiometric AlB 2 -type compound and reported some new binary TmGe 2−x phases, derived from the AlB 2 type.…”

Magnetic, Caloric and Crystallographic Properties of Dy₅(Si_xGe_1-x)₄ Alloys

“…The phase diagrams of the Tb-Ge and Tb-Si systems were reported in the papers [41] and [42], respectively.…”

“…In 1994, Eremenko et al [24] using microstructural, X-ray and DTA analyses studied the structure and phase composition of the cast and annealed alloys of dysprosium with silicon. This was the first time the phase diagram for the dysprosium-silicon system was reported.…”

“…The formation of Nd 5 Si 4 was studied using auger electron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry [39]. The magnetization and dc magnetic susceptibility were reported for Nd 5 (Si x Ge 1-x ) 4 4 Physical properties of Tb 5 Si 4 were reported for the first time in early eighties [22,41].…”

“…4 , and Y 5 (Si x Ge 1-x ) 4 Only a limited amount of well-established experimented data exist for the R 5 (Si x Ge 1-x ) 4 phases for R = Pr, Ho, Er, Tm, and Y; these includes phase diagrams, and magnetic, electronic, and thermodynamic properties.
