DyCo10Mo2−xSix compounds (x=0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0) with the ThMn12 structure were prepared by means of arc melting and subsequent vacuum annealing. Their magnetic properties were investigated by x-ray diffraction on fixed aligned powder samples and by magnetization measurements. The lattice constants decrease linearly with increasing value of x. The easy-magnetization direction (EMD) of all samples is parallel to the c axis at room temperature except for DyCo10Si2 whose EMD is within the basal plane. Deviations of the spontaneous moment up from a linear x dependence are observed. The Curie temperature attains a maximum value at x=1.5. There is a spin reorientation transition from the easy axis to the easy cone upon cooling for compounds with x=0.5, 1, and 1.5. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
