The pressure effect on the magnetic transition temperatures of Mn3GaC, Mn3ZnC and Mn3SnC were measured under pressures up to 13 kbar. The pressure derivatives of the transition temperatures are obtained to be dTt⁄dP=−3.5 K/kbar and dTC⁄dP=0.4 K/kbar for Mn3GaC, dTt⁄dP=−0.9 K/kbar and TC⁄dP=0 for Mn3ZnC and dTC⁄dP=−1.9 K/kbar for Mn3SnC, where Tt and TC are the magnetic order-order transition temperature and the Curie temperature, respectively. An intermediate magnetic phase (I) is induced in Mn3GaC under pressures above 3 kbar. The triple point (Antiferro./I/Ferro.) was determined to be Tc=158 K and Pc=3 kbar. The temperature variations of magnetization, magnetic susceptibility and lattice parameter were also measured.
