Abstract

Hyperfine parameters and the pressure dependence of the magnetic transition temperatures of FeRhGe2have been investigated. Sample has been prepared using high pressure-high temperature synthesis technique. FeRhGe2consists of two B20 structure phases with close lattice constants. The phase separation stays constant in the temperature range 4-300 K. The magnetic transition temperaturesTc1= 213 K andTc2= 135 K of FeRhGe2slightly increases with pressure in the range 0-4.5 GPa. We have compared this pressure dependence with some others compounds in the family Fe1-xRhxGe. The two phases in FeRhGe2have slightly different values of the hyperfine magnetic fields.
