Abstract

We present here the resistivity and magnetization study of Ir and Re substituted C-15 Laves-phase compound CeFe2. Re and Ir substitution triggers the incipient ferromagnetic instability in CeFe2 resulting in a transition from ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic state. Both resistivity and magnetization show clear indications of both paramagnetic-to-ferromagnetic and ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic transitions. The antiferromagnetic phase is restored to ferromagnetic phase on application of sufficiently strong magnetic field.
