Measurements of electrical resistivity, ρ(T ), were performed under quasihydrostatic pressure up to P ~ 2.2 GPa to determine the pressure dependence of the so-called hidden order (HO) and large-moment antiferromagnetic (LMAFM) phases for the URu_2-xFexSi2 system with x = 0.025, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20. As the Fe concentration (x) is increased, we observed that a smaller amount of external pressure, P_c, is required to induce the HO → LMAFM phase transition. A critical pressure of P_c ~ 1.2 GPa at x = 0.025 reduces to P_c ~ 0 at x = 0.15, suggesting the URu_2-xFe_xSi₂ system is fully expressed in the LMAFM phase for x ≥ x*_c = 0.15, where x *_c denotes the ambient pressure critical concentration of Fe. Furthermore, when using a bulk modulus calculation to convert x to chemical pressure, P_ch(x), we consistently found that the induced HO → LMAFM phase transition occurred at various combinations of x_c and P_c such that P_ch(x_c) + P_c ≈ 1.5 GPa, where xc denotes those critical concentrations of Fe that induce the HO→LMAFM phase transition for the URu_2-xFe_xSi₂ compounds under pressure. We performed exponential fits of ρ(T ) in the HO and LMAFM phases in order to determine the pressure dependence of the energy gap, , that opens over part of the Fermi surface in the transition from the paramagnetic (PM) phase to the HO/LMAFM phase at the transition temperature, T₀. Finally, this change in the pressure variation of Δ(P) at the HO→LMAFM phase transition is consistent with the values of P_c determined from the T₀(P) phase lines at the PM→HO/LMAFM transition.
