摘要
R-5(SixGe1-x)(4) alloys, where R is Tb, Dy, and Er, have been examined. Their microstructures consisted of large grains with thin plates of a second phase. Energy dispersive spectrometry of the plates revealed a rare earth rich composition. It is proposed that the plates are R-5(SixGe1-x)(3) compounds, similar to results seen in Gd-5(SixGe1-x)(4).
