Magnetocrystalline anisotropy and magnetization were measured in mixed garnet single crystals with compositions Y/sub 3-x/R/ sub x/M/sub y/Fe/sub 5-y/ O$sub 12$ (R is Nd or Sm, x from 0 to 2; M is Al or Sc, y from 0 to 1). It was found that the anisotropy and magnetization of the crystals containing Nd, Sm, and/or Sc are significantly field dependent. Results are qualitatively explained in terms of the lattice effect on the Nd and Sm magnetic moment and the moment canting due to additions of Sc. (auth)
