Abstract The effects of Fe substitution for Co on the structural stability and the site preference of intermetallics Nd$_{2}$Co$_{7 - x}$Fe$_{x}$ with a hexagonal Ce$_{2}$Ni$_{7}$-type structure are studied by using a series of interatomic pair potentials. In Nd$_{2}$Co$_{7 - x}$Fe$_{x}$, Fe atoms are substituted for Co atoms with a strong preference for the 6h sites and the order of site preference is 6h, 4e, 4f, 2a, and 12k. Calculated lattice parameters are found to be consistent with the reported results in the literature. The variation behaviour of the Curie temperature of Nd$_{2}$Co$_{7 - x}$Fe$_{x}$ is explained qualitatively by the exchange interaction model. The properties related to lattice vibration, such as phonon density of states and Debye temperature, are first evaluated for the Nd$_{2}$Co$_{7 - x}$Fe$_{x}$ compounds.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
