Figure 3
Temperature dependence of the magnetization of the rare-earth (solid symbols) and transition-metal (open symbols) sublattices, MR and MT, determined from the rare-earth L2-edge XMCD spectra: ErFe2 (black, squares), Er(Fe0.75Al0.25)2 (red, circles), Er(Fe0.5Al0.5)2 (green, triangles), ErCo2 (blue, inverted triangles) and HoCo2 (purple, diamonds). The dotted lines are a guide for the eye. |
