Abstract
The solid solutions Eu(Ir1−x Pd x )2Si2, which exist for 0≤x≤0.125 and 0.75≤x≤1. cristallize with the tetragonal ThCr2Si2-type structure. The variation of the europium valence with composition has been thoroughly studied at temperatures 4.2≤T≤293 K by151Eu Mössbauer resonance. For 0≤x≤0.125 the europium valence at room temperature decreases asx increases. For 0.75≤x≤1 the valence transition temperature Eu3+→Eu2+ increases asx increases.
