The isothermal section(500 oC)of the phase diagram of the Gd-Fe-Ga ternary system WaS investigated by X-ray powder diffraction analysis.Eleven binary compounds,GdGa2,GdGa,Gd3Ga2,Gd5Ga3,GdFe2,GdFe3,Gd2Fe17,Fe3Ga,Fe6Ga5,Fe3Ga4 and FeGa3,have been confirmed.Two ternary compounds,GdFe6Ga6 and GdFe5.2Ga6.8.were found in this ternary system at 500 oC.The compound GdFe6Ga6 is orthorhombic ScFe6Ga6-type structure(space group Immm)with a=0.8567,b=0.8696 and C=0.5078 am,while the compound GdFe5.2Ga6.8 is tetragonal ThMn12-type structure(space group 14/mmm)with a=0.8676 and C=0.5093 nm.The isothermal section at 500 oC consists of 16 single-phase regions,31 two-phase regions and 16 three-phase regions.The maximum solid solubility of Ga in GdFe2,GdFe3,Gd2Fe17 are 5,3,and 40 at.%respectively.The homogeneity range ofGdGa2 is from 22 t0 3313 at.%Ga in Gd-Ga side but the solid solubility of Fe in this compound is very small.Very limited solid solutions were measured in the other compounds.
