摘要
We present a detailed study on the magnetization under high magnetic fields of Tb5Si2Ge2 and Gd5Si2Ge2 compounds. From the Arrott plot construction (A. Arrott, Phys. Rev. 108, 1394 (1957)), we were able to estimate the T-C of each structure (M and O(I)) experimentally and found that the T-C of the O(I) phase can be directly obtained by extrapolating the T-C curve of this phase in the respective phase diagram. Using a physical model based on free energy considerations, one explains the (de) coupling of the magnetic and structural transitions in R-5(SixGe1-x)(4) (R = Tb, Gd) compounds.
