Pecularities of nanocrystal formation in rapidly quenched (FeCo)MoCuB amorphous alloys

The effect of the substitution of Fe by Co on the enhancement of glass‐forming ability limits and subsequent nanocrystallization was studied in a rapidly quenched amorphous system (Fe_xCo_y)₇₉Mo₈Cu₁B₁₂ for y/x ranging from 0 to 1. The effect of Cu on nanocrystallization was investigated by comparison with Cu‐free amorphous Fe₈₀Mo₈B₁₂. Systems partially crystallized at the surface layer were prepared for y/x = 0 using different quenching conditions. The effect of heat treatment of master alloys used for ribbon casting was also assessed. The microstructure and surface/bulk crystallization effects were analysed using transmission electron microscopy and electron and X‐ray diffraction in relation to the expected enhancement of high‐temperature soft magnetic properties, drastically reduced grain sizes (～5 nm) and Co content. Unusual surface phenomena were observed, indicating the origin of possible nucleation sites for preferential crystallization in samples with low Co content.     

Nanocrystalline materials for high temperature soft magnetic applications: A current prospectus

Conventional physical metallurgy approaches to improve soft ferromagnetic properties involve tailoring chemistry and optimizing microstructure. Alloy design involves consideration of induction and Curie temperatures. Significant in the tailoring of microstructure is the recognition that the coercivity, (H _c) is roughly inversely proportional to the grain size (D _g) for grain sizes exceeding ∼0·1−1 μm (where the grain size exceeds the Bloch wall thickness,δ). In such cases grain boundaries act as impediments to domain wall motion, and thus fine-grained materials are usually harder than large-grained materials. Significant recent development in the understanding of magnetic coercivity mechanisms have led to the realization that for very small grain sizesD _g<∼100 nm,H _c decreases sharply with decreasing grain size. This can be rationalized by the extension of random anisotropy models that were first suggested to explain the magnetic softness of transition-metal-based amorphous alloys. This important concept suggests that nanocrystalline and amorphous alloys have significant potential as soft magnetic materials. In this paper we have discussed routes to produce interesting nanocrystalline magnets. These include plasma (arc) production followed by compaction and primary crystallization of metallic glasses. A new class of nanocrystalline magnetic materials, HITPERM, having high permeabilities at high temperatures have also been discussed.
