Abstrakt: We studied the relationship between the lattice constant and magnetism of L 1 0 -ordered FePt under high pressure by means of first-principles calculations and synchrotron x-ray measurements. Based on our calculations, we found that the c/a ratio shows a local maximum at ∼20 GPa and that the Pt magnetic moment first remains almost unchanged and is sharply suppressed at ∼60 GPa. As for the c/a, we experimentally verified the local maximum at ∼20 GPa by powder x-ray diffraction. We also measured the x-ray magnetic circular dichroism at the Pt L edge up to ∼20 GPa. Any significant change in the Pt magnetic moment was not observed in agreement with the calculations. These results, thus, indicate that magnetic states, where the magnetization of Fe decreased and that of Pt did not change, can be created in L 1 0 -ordered FePt by lattice deformation under high pressure.
