Magnetic characteristics of RPd2Si2 (R = Rare earth)

Magnetic characteristics of HoPd2Si2 and ErPd2Si2 with the ThCr2Si2-type crystal structure have been studied from measurements of magnetic susceptibility χ(T) and magnetization M(B) on the single crystals. The compound HoPd2Si2 orders antiferromagnetically below TN = 5.1 K with the magnetic easy dir...
