First-principles calculations of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the prototype 2:17 cell boundary phase Y(Co1-x-yFexCuy)5

We present a computational study of the compound YCo 1-x-y Fe x Cu y5 for 0 ⩽x,y⩽0.2. This compound was chosen as a prototype for investigating the cell boundary phase believed to play a key role in establishing the high coercivity of commercial Sm-Co 2:17 magnets. Using density-functional theory, w...
