Abstract The magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of (Tb$_{1 - x}$Dy$_{x})_{6}$Co$_{1.67}$Si3 ($0 \le x \le 0.8$) have been experimentally investigated. The compounds exhibit a Ce$_{6}$Ni2Si3-type hexagonal structure and undergo a second-order magnetic transition. The Curie temperature decreases from $\sim 187$ K to 142 K as the content of Dy grows from 0 to 0.8. The maximal magnetic entropy change, for a field change of 0--5 T, varies between $\sim 6.2$ and $\sim 7.4$ J/kg$\cdot$K, slightly decreasing when Dy is introduced. The substitution of Dy leads to a remarkable increase in refrigeration capacity (RC). A large RC value of $\sim 626$ J/kg is achieved for $x=0.4$ under a field change of 0--5 T.

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.
