Abstract

The ThCr2Si2-type layered compound SrCo2P2 shows an itinerant-electron metamagnetic transition at high magnetic field. To investigate substitution effects on the itinerant metamagnetic transition, we synthesized Sr1-xLaxCo2P2 and SrCo2(P1-xGex)2 and measured their magnetic properties, including magnetizations under pulsed high magnetic fields. We have revealed a strong x dependence of the metamagnetic transition which is consistent with the band theory describing the physical properties in metals.
