N2 - Ternary rare earth silicides of the LnMxSi2-x system were investigated for the composition range between LnSi2 and LnM2. The rare earth elements studied were Pr, Nd, Dy, and Er and the transition metals were Fe, Co, Ni, and Ag. The main structures found were of the ThSi2 and AlB2 types characteristic of the disilicides. Above 33.33 at.% transition metal content in most cases Laves phases or ternary phases were observed. The structure changes and the lattice parameters are discussed and are related to the variation in the valence electron concentration and to geometrical factors.
