Abstract: | The effect of nanocrystallization annealing under tensile loading on the structure of nanocrystals in the soft magnetic alloy Fe-Si-Nb-B-Cu (Finemet) has been investigated. It has been shown that the body-centered cubic (bcc) lattice of α-FeSi nanocrystals is extended along the direction of the application of the load upon annealing and is compressed in the transverse direction. Nanocrystals in the Finemet alloy have a higher degree of anisotropy of mechanical properties as compared to bulk crystals of α-FeSi, so that agreement between the measured and calculated values of the elongation is achieved only with a significant increase in the elastic moduli. Substantial changes in mechanical properties of the crystals with a decrease in their size to the nanometer scale are caused by the influence of the rigid amorphous matrix of the Fe(Nb)-B phase surrounding the nanocrystals. |
