Abstract

We investigated Nd concentration dependence of the superconducting transition temperature, TC, and magnetic transition temperature, TN, for the R1-xNdxNi2B2C (R=Y and Er) systems. TC and TN curves against x for the R=Er system cross over at the substitution concentration x∼0.165, for which TN=5 K, but TC could not be observed. In the meanwhile, TC and TN curves for the R=Y system did not cross over. The phase diagram, (TC, TN) against Nd concentration x, for the R1-xNdxNi2B2C systems are given and discussed.
