摘要
Structure, magnetic properties, and thermal stability of ternary Sm1-xTmxCo5 compounds were studied via X-ray diffraction（XRD）, thermal magnetic analysis（TMA）, and magnetic measurements. XRD results show that all the compounds have a main phase of hexagonal CaCu5-type crystal structure with small amount of impurity phases; increasing Tm content is associated with contraction of the hexagonal unit cell in the direction of the c axis and expansion of the a and b parameters. TMA results indicate that the Curie temperature（TC） of Sm1-xTmxCo5 compounds gets higher with the increase in Tm content.Magnetic measurements show that both the magnetic anisotropy field（HA） and the magnetization at an applied field of 7 T（M7 T） decrease with the increase of Tm content. However, the thermal stability of both the HAand M7 Tof all the Tm doped compounds is remarkably improved compared with that of the pure SmCo5 compound, leading to the result that both the M7 Tand HAof Sm0.8Tm0.2Co5 .2are higher than those of SmCo5 compound at 473 K, which indicates the good potential of Tm doped compound in the practical applications at elevated temperature.
