Magnetic Properties and Time-Temperature Stability of Properties of on Iron- and Cobalt-Based Amorphous and Nanocrystalline Alloys with a Destabilized Domain Structure

摘要

Magnetic properties of amorphous and nanocrystalline alloys with a saturation magnetostriction close to zero and a destabilized magnetic domain structure have been studied. A change in the magnetic characteristics has been investigated after two treatments leading to a destabilization of the domain structure: magnetic annealing in a high-frequency magnetic field of 80 kHz and quenching in water. It has been shown that the destabilization by both the first and the second methods markedly improves magnetic properties of amorphous alloys. Nevertheless, upon quenching of amorphous alloys a time-temperature instability of the magnetic properties has been observed. The quenching in water of the nanocrystalline alloys under study results in a deterioration of the magnetic properties.
