Abstract: The compound ingots of Pr0.15TbxDy0.85-xFe2 (x=0 to 0.85) were prepared by are melting in a water Cu boat using are furnace under a purified Ar atmosphere. Appropriate annealing (850 degreesC, 100 h) can obtain single Laves phase compound. The magnetostriction for these systems will rise obviously when partially substituted Tb or Dy by Pr.
