Abstract

Crystalline structures and magnetic properties of the FeRh_1−xPd_x system were investigated. Substitution of Pd for Rh stabilized body-centered tetragonal (bct) structure of the ordered CuAu-type with increasing axial ratio c/a from 1.18 to 1.36. The bct alloys in the range x=0.530∼0.61 exhibited a first-order phase transition from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic state, while the bct alloys with x<0.530 exhibited a first-order phase transition from antiferromagnetic to Curie paramagnetic state. Both the axial ratio and the volume increased abruptly at the transitions. A new ferromagnetic phase with orthorhombic structure with the space group C_mmm was found in the bct alloys with x=0.525∼0.61 below room temperature. This ferromagnetic phase possesses a larger magnetic moment than that of the bct phase. Reduction of the crystalline symmetry may have enhanced the magnetic moment.
