摘要
We report measurements of the low-field AC magnetic susceptibility chi'(T,f) and of the specific heat C-p(T) for polycrystalline samples of Fe1-xCoxSi with 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.03 at low temperatures. For x greater than or equal to 0.01, the chi'(T) curves show maxima indicative of a spin-glass-type freezing of magnetic moments below 1 K. The small values of T-f/x and the T-f(f) variations both suggest a weak magnetic interaction. The specific heat C-p(T) contains a term gamma T which raises with increasing x from 2.1 T mJ mol(-1) K-1 for FeSi to 7.6 T mJ mol(-1) K-1 for Fe0.97Co0.03Si.
