Summary:This invention provides a ferromagnetic alloy M3Ga2-xAsx where 0.15 where iron is substituted by manganese or cobalt. In the composition range 0.85 B82-type. In the composition range 0.15 structure is changed such that a2 = 2a1 and c2 = c1 (where a1 and c1 are the a and c spacings of the B82 structure and a2 and c2 are the a and c spacings of the new structure). The transition between the two lattice structures occurs within the composition range 0.75 substituted for arsenic) in the range 0.15 Temperature, Tc, of the alloy is shown to generally increase.
