Effect of compositional variation on the soft magnetic properties of Fe(87−x−y)CoxTi7 Zr6By amorphous ribbons

The effect of the replacement of Fe by Co or B on the thermal stability and soft magnetic properties of the Fe-based amorphous metallic ribbons with Fe_(87−x−y)Co_xTi₇Zr₆B_y (x = 10, 20% and y = 8, 10, 12%) produced by melt-spinning technique was investigated. For the melt-spun amorphous ribbons, the values of saturation magnetization and coercivity were observed to range from 107.00 to 152.38 emu/g and from 0.012 to 0.446 Oe, respectively. The thermal properties such as T_g, T_x, and ΔT_x were in the range of 796.7–809.6 K, 840.2–853.5 K, and 35.8–54.5 K, respectively. In the Fe–Co–Ti–Zr–B alloys, the Co substitution for Fe improved the soft magnetic properties but decreased the thermal stability. For magnetic properties, the coercivity (H_c) decreased and saturation magnetization (M_s) increased by the addition of Co. However, the supercooled liquid region (ΔT_x) decreased by the addition of Co. Meanwhile, the B substitution for Fe had no meaningful change on the thermal stability and soft magnetic properties. The amorphous ribbon of Fe₅₉Co₂₀Ti₇Zr₆B₈ exhibited the best soft magnetic properties such as the low coercivity of 0.025 Oe and the high saturation magnetization of 152.38 emu/g.     

57Fe,61Ni and91Zr hyperfine field distributions in magnetic Tm-Zr amorphous alloys

Pulsed NMR measurements were performed on [Tm₁ (Tm₂)]_90+x Zr_10?x (Tm=Fe, Co, Ni) amorphous alloys utilizing a newly developed low temperature wide band probehead-preamplifier system. A 11,6 T broad⁵⁷Fe hyperfine field distribution around the average of 23.6 T together with a less intensive peak around 11 T has been found in Fe_90.6Zr_9.4, in excellent agreement with Mössbauer studies. A rather flat distribution around the average value of 14.8 T characterizes the transferred hyperfine field at the Zr sites in the same alloy. Both features provide strong evidence for a broad range of exchange interactions and variations in the spin density at the Fe sites in this material. A much narrower and symmetrical distribution at the Zr sites around 10 T in Co₉₀Zr₁₀ is evidence of the higher magnetic homogeneity of this alloy as compared to Fe₉₀Zr₁₀. In Fe₆₀Ni₃₀Zr₁₀, in addition to the⁵⁷Fe signal, a contribution from⁶¹Ni nuclei could be separated, corresponding to an average hyperfine field value of 15.3 T.     

Nanogranular Phase Formation During Devitrification of Fe(NiCo)ZrB Amorphous Alloys

A comprehensive review of our recent experimental and theoretical developments in the processing of nanocrystalline soft magnetic materials made by crystallization of amorphous precursors and containing new nanocrystalline phases is given. The relationship between the structures of the metastable and equilibrium phases and their transformations are discussed. Nickel-rich amorphous precursors with stoichiometry Ni₆₄Fe₁₆Zr₇B₁₂Au₁ were produced by melt-spinning technique and then heat-treated at temperatures ranged from 420 °C to 600 °C for one hour to form nanostructured alloy. The transformation from the amorphous state into the nanocrystalline state was investigated by the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), the x-ray diffraction (XRD), the vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and Mössbauer techniques. The annealing favours the emergence of cubic Fe_xNi_23-xB₆ crystalline grains (10-25 nm in diameter). Magnetic measurements made at 4.2-1100 K reveal rather high value of saturation magnetization (nearly 60 and 40 Am²/kg at 4.2 K and room temperature, respectively) in amorphous as well as in nanocrystalline states. These facts are consistent with 300 K ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer results which are well supported by the calculations of Ni and Fe magnetic moments in Ni₂₃B₆ and Fe₂₃B₆ phases, using the spin polarized tight binding linear muffin-tin orbital (TB-LMTO) method. However, anomalous high magnetic moments of Fe and Co atoms were found in some inequivalent positions in the crystal structure.     

Magnetic ordering of Fe atoms in icosahedral Al70−x BxPd30−y Fey quasicrystals

Novel icosahedral quasicrystals, in which Fe atoms possess a magnetic moment, have been found in Al_70?x B_xPd_30?y Fe_y compounds with 5<x<10 and 10<y<20. The compounds have ferromagnetic properties, and their Curie temperature ranges between 280 and 340 K, the saturation magnetization σ _s(5 K)≈7.5 emu/g. It follows from Mössbauer spectra that only a fraction of Fe atoms (12 to 15%) are magnetically ordered at 4.2 K, and the mean saturation field 〈H _hf〉=96 kOe. The isomer shift values confirm that the atomic volume of magnetic Fe sites is larger than that of nonmagnetic Fe sites. The magnetic properties of these quasicrystals can be interpreted in terms of large magnetic clusters with a size of 185 to 290 Å. This size correspond to about 4×10⁴ “unit cells,” hence the magnetic state can be described in terms of bulk parameters. The localized magnetic moment of Fe atoms is tentatively ascribed to bonding between Fe and B, similarly to that in the amorphous Fe_～50B_～50 alloy.     

Influence of milling time on the structural, microstructural and magnetic properties of mechanically alloyed Ni58Fe12Zr10Hf10B10 nanostructured/amorphous powders

This paper investigates structural, microstructural and magnetic properties of amorphous/nanocrystalline Ni₅₈Fe₁₂Zr₁₀Hf₁₀B₁₀ powders prepared by high energy milling. Ball milling of Ni, Fe, Zr, Hf and B leads to alloying of the element powders at 120 h. The results show that at 190 h the amorphous content is at the highest level and the grain size is about 2 nm. The magnetic measurements reveal that the coercivity and the saturation magnetization reach about 20 Oe and 30 emu/g at 190 h and become approximately 5 Oe and 40 emu/g after a suitable heat treatment, respectively.

Characterizing structures in the Fe−Ni−B amorphous system

Amorphous alloys Fe₈Ni_80?XB₂₀ (x=20?60) and (Fe_0.5Ni_0.5)_100?yB_y (y=16?25) have been thermally treated between 300k and 800k in a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The phases have been determined using Mössbauer spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction methods. The crystallization temperatures, heats of crystallization and the crystallization products of the amorphous(a)-Fe?Ni?B system vary with the composition of Fe and with the that of B. Basing on the variations of these factors the short range order (sro) of the amorphous Fe?Ni?B alloy system is discussed.     

Local atomic structures in Zr-Ni metallic glasses

Local atomic structures of Zr100−xNix (x=33.3, 36, 50 at%) binary metallic glasses were investigated by means of extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) probe. Structural parameters show that the Zr-Ni bond length, RZr-Ni, keeps a constant value of 2.62 Å, regardless of alloy compositions. This result implies that there is a strongly chemical interaction between Zr and Ni atoms, leading to significant chemical short-range orders (CSROs) in the present metallic glasses. Further analysis indicates that the SRO structures in these metallic glasses are extremely similar with those in their crystalline counterparts. It is interesting to note that the CSROs in the eutectic Zr₆₄Ni₃₆ metallic glass consist of Zr₂Ni-like and ZrNi-like CSROs.     

Curie temperatures and crystallization behavior of amorphous Fe81−xNixZr7B12 (x=10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60) alloys

Curie temperature, crystal structure and crystallization behavior of amorphous alloys with the stoichiometry Fe_81−xNi_xZr₇B₁₂ (x=10–60) have been studied by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and AC-magnetization (TMAG) measurements as functions of temperature. The thermal stability of long-range magnetic order, T_C vs. Ni content in as-quenched amorphous alloys exhibits maximum at 352 °C for x=40. The primary crystallization has been detected during annealing at the first crystallization stage of all ribbons investigated.

The⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy of amorphous Fe_90–xCo_xZr₁₀ and Fe_90–xNi_xZr₁₀ provided strong evidence for the unusual large enhancement of the Fe magnetic moment in these alloys.

Onset of magnetism in concentrated ternary alloys I

The onset of magnetism and the magnetic propreties of concentrated substitutional ternary alloys A(Fe_1?xB_x)₂ (A = Y, Zr, U; B = Mn, Co, Ni and Al), Y₂(Ni_1?xCo_x)₇, Y(Ni_1?xCo_x)₃, Y₆(Fe_1?xMn_x)₂₃ and Ti(Fe_1?xCo_x) as well as the amorphous alloy system (Fe_1?xNi_x)₇₇Si₁₀B₁₃ are discussed in terms of homogeneous and heterogeneous models based on the Stoner-, Edwards- Wohlfa arth- and the Landau theory of phase transitions of second order. For a detailed comparison of the nine ternary systems A(Fe, B)₂ (A = Y, Zr, U; B = Mn, Co, Al) we refer to a following paper. From the results obtained on alloying UNi₂ with Fe, Co and Cu we propose that the magnetic moment of UNi₂—contrary to UFe₂—resides mainly on U rather than on the Ni site. The appearance of magnetism in YNi_x compounds by either changing the Y : Ni ratio or substituting Ni by Co in YNi₃ and Y₂Ni₇ is mainly attributed to band effects for which a schematic N(E) curve is proposed. The breakdown of long-range magnetic order in Y₆(Fe, Mn)₂₃ seems to be caused by a lack of delocalized electrons and a preferential site occupation of Mn and Fe. The magnetic properties of Ti(Fe_1?xCo_x) change from an itinerant to a localized moment behaviour above and below x = 0.5 due to the occurrence of Fe antistructure atoms which drive the onset of long-range magnetic order. The occurrence of magnetism in amorphous alloys compared with that of crystalline alloys with a high degree of disorder may be characterized in a similar way.     

Mössbauer study of hydrided amorhous Fe−M−Zr (M=Co,Cr) alloys

Mössbauer spectra of hydrided amorphous Fe₉₀?_xCo_xZr₁₀ (A_x) and Fe₉₀?_yCr_yZr₁₀ (B_y) (x=4, 10, 20; y=0, 4, 7, 13, 16, 20) are studied. For low hydriding time values (t), the average hyperfine field \(\left( {\bar B_{hf} } \right)\) and isomer shift δ_is show a drastic increase which can mainly be associated with the volume effect. For higher (t) values, an electron transfer effect can be responsible for the hyperfine parameter variation. The influence of hydrogenation on magnetic anisotropy is also discussed.     

Glass-forming ability and thermal stability of Fe<Subscript>62</Subscript>Nb<Subscript>8−x</Subscript>Zr<Subscript>x</Subscript>B<Subscript>30</Subscript> and Fe<Subscript>72</Subscript>Zr<Subscript>8</Subscript>B<Subscript>20</Subscript> amorphous alloys?

Glass-forming ability (GFA) and thermal stability of Fe₆₂Nb₈B₃₀, Fe₆₂Nb₆Zr₂B₃₀ and Fe₇₂Zr₈B₂₀ at % amorphous alloys were investigated by calorimetric (DSC and DTA) measurements. The crystallization kinetics was studied by DSC in the mode of continuous versus linear heating and it was found that both the glass transition temperature, T _g , and the crystallization peak temperature, T _p , display strong dependence on the heating rate. The partial replacement of Nb by Zr leads to lower T _g and T _x temperatures and causes a decrease of the supercooled liquid region. JMA analysis of isothermal transformation data measured between T _g and T _x suggests that the crystallization of the Fe₆₂Nb₈B₃₀ and Fe₆₂Nb₆Zr₂B₃₀ amorphous alloys take place by three-dimensional growth with constant nucleation rate. Nb enhances the precipitation of the metastable Fe₂₃B₆ phase and stabilizes it up to the third crystallization stage. Zr addition increases the lattice constant of Fe₂₃B₆ and, at the same time, decreases the grain size.     

Magnetic and57Fe Mössbauer studies of intermetallic compounds R2 (Fe1−x−y Ni x Co y )17 (R=Y,Gd,Tb,x=0,0.10, 0.20,y=0,0.05, 0.10)

Mössbauer studies of R₂(Fe_1?x?y Ni _x Co _y )₁₇ showed that the transferred hyperfine field at Fe nuclei due to magnetic rare earth (R) atoms is about one Tesla. Magnetic moments of the R atoms were determined from magnetic measurements as μTb=8.52μB, μGd=6.22μB. The mixed substitution of Ni and Co for Fe leads to an increase of the ordering temperature. A slight preference occupancy for Fe was observed involving the dumbbell shaped f or c site. The substitution effects of Ni and Co on the hyperfine field of f or c site, the average hyperfine field and the average isomer shift were also discussed.     

Creation of ferromagnetic properties of V–Fe and Zr–Fe alloys by hydrogen absorption

The results of investigations of V_1?y Fe _y H _x and Zr_1?y Fe _y H _x alloys by ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy are presented and discussed in view of hydrogen ability to create ferromagnetic properties of the alloy. The results indicate two different possibilities of hydrogen influence on the hyperfine magnetic field. Hydrogen absorption causes the ferromagnetic behaviour of the alloys at significant lower iron concentration compared to the concentration of magnetic transition in binary alloys. The main reason for such behaviour is the anisotropic lattice expansion in hydrogenated V–Fe and Zr–Fe alloys as well as the decomposition of paramagnetic Zr-rich intermetallic compounds in the aftermath of the strong electron affinity of hydrogen for zirconium. These trends give rise to growth of magnetic clusters of Fe atoms so strong that they can participate in the overall magnetic properties of the system under investigation.     

Microstructural investigation of Fe–Zr–B–Ag soft magnetic thin films

A microstructural study of DC-sputtered Fe_93−xZr₃B₄Ag_x films on Si(0 0 1) substrates has been carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). All samples were deposited as a function of additive Ag content (x=0–6 at%), and annealed in the range of temperature, 300–600°C, for 1 h in order to obtain enhanced soft magnetic properties. Through XRD and TEM investigation, Ag-free Fe₉₃Zr₃B₄ films on Si(0 0 1) substrates consisted of nano-crystalline Fe-based phases. In the presence of Ag additive element, the microstructure of as-deposited Fe_93−xZr₃B₄Ag_x films consisted of a mixture of majority of Fe-based amorphous and Ag crystalline phases. In this case, additive element, Ag played a role in retarding the formation of Fe-based crystalline phases during deposition, and insoluble nano-crystalline Ag particles were dispersed in the Fe-based amorphous matrix. As the content of Ag increased, the intensity of Ag crystalline XRD peak increased. Crystallization of Fe-based amorphous phase in the matrix of Fe₈₈Zr₃B₄Ag₅ thin films occurred at an annealing temperature of 400°C. In the case of Fe₈₈Zr₃B₄Ag₅ films annealed at 500°C, a much enhanced permeability of the Fe-based alloy thin films associated with nano-crystalline phases was achieved.     

Correlations between hyperfine parameters of Fe−Ni-B amorphous metals

The correlations between fluctuations in the⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer hyperfine parameters of the amorphous alloys (Fe_0.5Ni_0.5)_100?x B _x (x=16, 18, 20, 22 and 25 at%) and Fe_yNi_80?y B₂₀ (y=20, 25, 40 and 60 at%) have been determined. Values of the correlation between the fluctuations of the isomer shift and the fluctuations of magnetic hyperfine field, μ_N 〈ΔHΔδ〉 together with published values on similar amorphous systems are compared with correlation values for related crystalline phases. The lack of characteristic values suggests that the correlation values do not allow a link to be made between local structural units in amorphous alloy and crystalline phases.
