Abstract Dy2Fe17-xGax (x = 0,1,2,3,4, 5 and 6) compounds were prepared by arc melting. These compounds are of single phase, having a hexagonal Th2Ni17-type structure fox x=0 and rhombohedral Th2Zn17-type structure for x≥1. The substitution of Ga for Fe in the Dy2Fe17 leads to a linear increase of unit-cell volumes. The saturation magnetization Ms at 1.5K is found to decrease linearly with increasing Ga concentration, from 65emu/g for x= 0 to 5emu/g for x = 6; and the Fe magnetic moment $\mu$Fe is almost independent of Ga concentration. The Curie temperature TC is found first to increase with increasing Ga content x, and goes through a maximum value of 559 K at about x = 3, then decreases. The sharp increase of TC at lower Ga content may result from the increase of unit cell volumes. Dy2Fe17-xGax compounds with x≤5 exhibit easy plane anisotropy at room temperature, and those with x = 6 possess easy-axis.

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.
