title = "High-field magnetization study of R2Fe17H3 (R=Tb, Dy, Ho and Er) single-crystalline hydrides",
abstract = "The high-field magnetization process in the hydrogen-charged R 2Fe17H3 (R=Tb, Dy, Ho and Er) single crystals is studied along principal crystallographic directions at T=4.2 K and compared with that of the known parent R2Fe17 compounds. Substantial changes of the magnetic anisotropy behavior induced by hydrogenation are found. Depending on the rare earth atom, the R2Fe 17H3 compounds possess the easy-axes, easy-cone and easy-plane types of magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA), whereas the precursors R2Fe17 have the easy-plane type of MCA only. The various observed types of the field-induced phase transitions in R2Fe 17H3 are discussed and information on the effect of hydrogen on the strength of R-Fe coupling is obtained.",

note = "Funding Information: T HE rare-earth intermetallics are well known due to their unique magnetic properties [1]. Among a large variety of compounds, the attention is often attracted to the materials suitable for the production of permanent magnets. High content of the transition metal usually provides elevated values of both the Curie temperatures and saturation magnetization, and the high-coercivity state is supported by the large easy-axis magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) created by alloying with the rare-earth elements. Obviously, the practical interest is directed towards the iron-containing alloys as commercially viable materials. However, the binary rare-earth intermetallics with one of the highest content of iron have very low ordering temperatures and the easy-plane magnetic anisotropy as opposed to their expensive cobalt analogues (e.g. ). The discovery of the inexpensive -based hard magnetic material (the light element boron stabilizes a rather complex crystal structure of the -type) in the 1980s [2] has demonstrated that the Fe-containing compounds may also possess the desired properties.
