The magnetic properties of dichalcogenide compounds, CoS2, CoSe2, NiS2, NiSe2 and the system Co(SxSe1−x)2, were studied by means of magnetic measurement, neutron diffraction and NMR. The exchange interaction Jsw of the ferromagnetic CoS2 (Tc=124°K, θp=220°K, peff=1.76μB, n=0.84μB and Hi=52 kOe) was estimated to be 24 cm−1 per Copair from the analysis of spin wave theory. While, CoSe2 (TN=90°K, θp=−160°K and peff=1.72μB) showed an antiferromagnetic spin ordering with MnSe2 type. NiS2 (θp=−740°K and peff=2.48μB) had no magnetic ordering even at 4.2°K. NiSe2 exhibited weak constant paramagnetism with metallic conductivity. In Co(SxSe1−x)2, (0≤x≤1), the magnetic properties and the magnetic phase diagram were determined, and this system showed to have “low spin state” with 1μB per Co. Some discussions were given from the theoretical stand points.
