MAGNETIC PROPERTIES AND CRYSTALLIZATION OF THE RAPIDLY QUENCHED (Fe1-xNdx) 81.5B18.5 ALLOYS

Magnetic properties and crystallization behaviors of amorphous (Fe_1-xNd_x) _81.5B_18.5 alloys were studied. The crystallization temperature is found to rise at first and then drop monotonically with x, having a maximum value of 976K at x=0.11 (9at% Nd). The (Fe_1-xNd_x) _81.5B_18.5 alloys prepared at a quenching rate of v_s = 6.6m /s are amorphous, and exhibit good glass formability. Both the coercive field H_c and energy product (BH)_max depend strongly on Nd concentration. Amorphous (Fe_1-xNd_x) _81.5B_18.5 alloys with higher Nd concentration have a high coercive field at low temperature, due to the large random uniaxial anisotropy of Nd. The room-temperature H_c and (BH)_max obtained on optimal annealing con-ditions show two maxima as a function of Nd concentration x. The highest room-temperature coercive field H_c =22 kOe within the Nd concentrations around x=0.368 and the maximum energy product(RH)_max= 13.3 MG·Oe at x =0.055 are observed. The hard magnetic properties of these crystallized samples are related to the presence of the bard magnetic Nd₂Fe₁₄B phase.     

非晶Nd3Fe81B16合金的晶化及其对磁性和M?ssbauer谱的影响

本文报道利用单辊方法制备的非晶Nd₃Fe₈₁B₁₆合金的晶化及其对磁性和M?ssbauer谱的影响。发现在非晶Fe₈₁B₁₉合金中用3at％Nd取代B,使非晶Fe₈₁B₁₉合金的晶化温度提高88℃。在适当的退火条件下晶化后样品在室温下的磁性是:σ_s=189emu/g,σ_r/σ_s=0.7,_iH_c=2.15kOe,B_r≈12kG,_bH_c=2kOe,(BH)_max≈8MGOe。与目前广泛使用的六角铁氧体相比,_bH_c相近,但B_r和(BH)_max远比六角铁氧体高。这种材料仅含有少量的Nd,因此可能开发为一种新的廉价永磁材料。本文对少量Nd的添加对非晶FeB合金的晶化温度,磁性和M?ssbauer谱的影响进行了讨论。初步探讨了高矫顽力的来源,认为它的磁化和反磁化过程可以用畴壁钉扎理论解释。 关键词：     

Effect of Ti and C additions on structural and magnetic properties of (Pr,Nd)–Fe–B nanocrystalline magnetic materials

Effects of titanium carbide (TiC) addition on structural and magnetic properties of isotropic (Pr,Nd)–Fe-B nanocrystalline magnetic materials have been investigated. In this work, we investigate the effect of TiC addition on a (Pr,Nd)-poor and B-rich composition, as well as on a B-poor and (Nd,Pr)-rich composition. Rapidly solidified (Pr,Nd)–Fe–B alloys were prepared by melt-spinning. The compositions studied were (Pr_1−xNd_x)₄Fe₇₈B₁₈ (x=0, 0.5, and 1) with addition of 3 at% TiC. Unlike the (Pr_xNd_1−x)_9.5Fe_84.5B₆ materials that present excellent values for coercive field and energy product, the (Pr,Nd)-poor and B-rich composition alloys with TiC addition present lower values. Rietveld analysis of X-ray data and Mössbauer spectroscopy revealed that samples are predominantly composed of Fe₃B and -Fe. For the RE-rich compositions (Pr_xNd_1−x)_9.5Fe_84.5B₆ (x=0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1) with the addition of 3 at% TiC, the highest coercive field and energy product (8.4 kOe and 14.4 MGOe, respectively) were obtained for the composition Pr_9.5Fe_84.5B₆.     

Band-gap engineering of La_(1-x)Nd_xAlO_3(x = 0,0.25,0.50,0.75,1)perovskite using density functional theory:A modified Becke Johnson potential study

The structural,electronic,and magnetic properties of the Nd-doped Rare earth aluminate,La_(1-x)Nd_xAlO_3(x = 0%to 100%) alloys are studied using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave(FP-LAPW) method within the density functional theory.The effects of the Nd substitution in La AlO_3 are studied using the supercell calculations.The computed electronic structure with the modified Becke–Johnson(m BJ) potential based approximation indicates that the La_(1-x)Nd_xAlO_3 alloys may possess half-metallic(HM) behaviors when doped with Nd of a finite density of states at the Fermi level(E_F).The direct and indirect band gaps are studied each as a function of x which is the concentration of Nddoped La AlO_3.The calculated magnetic moments in the La_(1-x)Nd_xAlO_3 alloys are found to arise mainly from the Nd-4f state.A probable half-metallic nature is suggested for each of these systems with supportive integral magnetic moments and highly spin-polarized electronic structures in these doped systems at E_F.The observed decrease of the band gap with the increase in the concentration of Nd doping in La AlO_3 is a suitable technique for harnessing useful spintronic and magnetic devices.

Low temperature magnetic and magnetostrictive properties in Pr(Fe_(1-x)Co_x)_(1.9) cubic Laves alloys

The structures,spin reorientations,magnetic,and magnetostrictive properties of the polycrystalline Pr(Fe_(1-x)Co_x)_(1.9)(x=0–1.0)cubic laves phase alloys between 5 K and 300 K are investigated.Large low-field magnetostrictions are observed at 5 K in the alloys with x=0.2 and 0.4 due to the low magnetic anisotropies of these two alloys.A large negative magnetostriction of about-1130 ppm is found in PrCo_(1.9) alloy at 5 K.The magnetizations of the alloys with 0≤x≤0.6decrease abnormally at the spin reorientation temperature T_(sr),and an abnormity is detected in the alloy with x=1.0 at its Curie temperature T_c(45 K).The substitution of Fe by Co increases the value of T_(sr) in the alloy with x value increasing from 0.0 to 0.4,and then reduces the value of Tsr with x value further increasing to 0.6.     

Magnetic properties of rapidly quenched amorphous Fe-Sm alloys

The structural analysis and investigation of magnetic properties were carried out on rapidly quenched Fe_100−xSm_x (10.5 x 80) alloys. Amorphous alloys are fabricated in a wide composition range from x = 17 to 72.5. After heating the amorphous alloys up to 900 K, they transform into metastable phase I (T_c = 465 K)+ -Fe (x < 20), metastable phase II (T_c = 555 K)+-Fe (20 x 33.3) and Fe₂Sm+Sm (x40). The composition dependence of Curie temperature and magnetization is found to be similar to that of amorphous Fe-(Nd, Pr) alloys. A maximum coercive force of about 1.1 kOe at 300 K and 12 kOe at 77 K is obtained in the x = 40 alloy. The rapid decrease in coercive force with raising temperature can be explained by the wall pinning model proposed by Gaunt. The pronounced composition dependence of these magnetic properties for the amorphous Fe-Sm alloys can be considered to be caused by the change in the short-range atomic order with Sm concentration on the basis of the results of X-ray structural analysis.

Magnetic hysteresis in rapidly quenched rare-earth alloys

The magnetic and structural properties of rapidly quenched (Pr₈₀Ga₂₀)_100-xFe_x, RTbFe and RTbFe(Co)M alloys are examined over a wide range of chemical compositions, where R ≡ Pr, Sm, MM and M ≡ B and Si. The Ga-containing samples show relatively high coercive fields (up to 3 kOe) in the amorphous state which subsequently disappear after crystallization. On the other hand, the high coercive fields (≈5 kOe) of melt-spun RTbFe samples decrease slightly after crystallization but their magnetic moment increases substantially. Melt-spun RTbFe(Co)M samples are generally magnetically soft in the as-quenched state. Magnetic hardening is produced by annealing the samples around 750°C leading to coercive fields which could not be measured with an ordinary electromagnet (H_c #62; 23 kOe). The best properties have been obtained on a Pr₁₄Fe₇₁B₁₅ sample with a coercive field of 8 kOe and an energy product of 8.5 MGOe. Thermomagnetic data show that a structural transformation takes place upon heating the samples to 750°C. The Curie temperature of the precipitate phase is around 320°C while that of the as-quenched phase is around 160°C. Transmission electron microscope studies show a very fine precipitate structure with a precipitate size below 100 Å. The precipitate phase is believed to be highly anisotropic leading to the observed hard magnetic properties.     

Stress dependence of the magnetic properties of amorphous Co-Fe-Si-B alloys

For the amorphous alloys Co_75−xFe_xSi₁₅B₁₀ (x = 0, 2, 4, 4.6) and Co₇₅Si₅B₂₀, we have studied the stress depe ndence of the coercive field, the initial susceptibility, the effective anisotropy, and the reduced remanence. The experimental results are in good agreement with a model due to Vázquez, Fernengel and Kronmüller. From our measurements, we obtain the magnetostriction, as well as information about quenched-in stresses and anisotropy mechanisms in these materials.     

Formation of L10-FeNi hard magnetic material from FeNi-based amorphous alloys

L1₀-FeNi hard magnetic alloy with coercivity reaching 861 Oe was synthesized through annealing Fe₄₂Ni_41.3Si₈B₄P₄Cu_0.7 amorphous alloy, and the L1₀-FeNi formation mechanism has been studied. It is found the L1₀-FeNi in annealed samples at 400 ℃ mainly originated from the residual amorphous phase during the second stage of crystallization which could take place over 60 ℃ lower than the measured onset temperature of the second stage with a 5 ℃/min heating rate. Annealing at 400 ℃ after fully crystallization still caused a slight increase of coercivity, which was probably contributed by the limited transformation from other high temperature crystalline phases towards L1₀ phase, or the removal of B from L1₀ lattice and improvement of the ordering quality of L1₀ phase due to the reduced temperature from 520 ℃ to 400 ℃. The first stage of crystallization has hardly direct contribution to L1₀-FeNi formation. Ab initio simulations show that the addition of Si or Co in L1₀-FeNi has the effect of enhancing the thermal stability of L1₀ phase without seriously deteriorating its magnetic hardness. The non-monotonic feature of direction dependent coercivity in ribbon segments resulted from the combination of domain wall pinning and demagnetization effects. The approaches of synthesizing L1₀-FeNi magnets by adding Si or Co and decreasing the onset crystallization temperature have been discussed in detail.     

Angular dependence of coercivity in Pr---Fe---B sintered magnets

Hysteresis loops were measured for varying angles of the applied field at different temperatures in oriented sintered magnets of compositions Fe₇₅Pr₁₇B₈ and Fe₅₃Pr₁₇B₃₀. While at elevated temperatures the coercive field increases monotonically with the angle of the applied field, a minimum in the angular dependence is found below room temperature. The temperature dependence of coercivity for the field applied parallel and with an angle of 45° to the alignment direction is well described by a nucleation model in the whole temperature range. The results are compared to Fe---Nd---B magnets, showing that the occurrence of a minimum in the angular dependence is related to the ratio of the experimental to the theoretical coercive fields.

Study of Properties of Mixed Ferro-Ferrimagnetic Ising Compounds with （AxB1-x）yC

The magnetic properties of the mixed ferro-ferrimagnetic compounds with (A_xB_1-x)_yC, where A, B, and C are three different magnetic ions and form three different sublattices, are studied by using the standard mean-field theory. The phase diagram which is related to experimental work of molecule-based ferro-ferrimagnet (Ni_x^II Mn^II_1-x)_1.5[Cr^III(CN)₆]• zH₂O is obtained. The magnetization curves, internal energy, and specific heat of the same mixed (A_xB_1-x)_yC system are also investigated.     

Crystallization kinetics of the Fe40Ni38Mo4B18 amorphous alloy

X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Mössbauer spectroscopy were used to study the annealing of the Fe₄₀Ni₃₈Mo₄B₁₈ amorphous alloy. The samples were isothermally annealed in the 858–878 K temperature range several times. Two crystalline phases were observed in the annealed samples: FeNi₃ and (Fe, Ni, Mo)₂₃B₆. Preliminary results indicate that assuming a linear relationship between the area under the main XRD peak associated with the FeNi₃ phase and its volume fraction, this can be fitted to a Johnson–Mehl–Avrami equation with an exponent n close to 1.0. Mössbauer results show a broad magnetic hyperfine field distribution in as-received samples and, consistent with XRD results, a sextet attributed to precipitates of FeNi₃ (B_hf=29.5 T) for long annealing times.     

Influence of misch metal content on microstructure and magnetic properties of R–Fe–B magnets sintered by dual alloy method

MM_(14)Fe_(79.9)B_(6.1)/Nd_(13.5)Fe_(80.5)B_6 magnets were fabricated by dual alloy method(MM, misch metal). Some magnets have two Curie temperatures. Curie temperatures T_(c1)corresponds to the main phase which contains more La Ce, and T_(c1) decreases from 276.5?C to 256.6?C with the content of MM increasing from 30.3 at.% to 50.6 at.%. The variation of Br with the increase of MM indicates the existence of inter-grain exchange coupling in the magnets. When MM/R ≤ 30.3 at.%,the magnetic properties can reach the level of the intrinsic coercivity Hcj≥ 7.11 kOe and the maximum energy product(BH)max≥ 41 MGOe. Compared with Nd, La and Ce are easier to diffuse to the grain boundaries in the sintering process,and this will cause the decrease of H_(cj) Due to the diffusion between the grains, the atomic ratio of La, Ce, Pr, and Nd in each grain is different and the percentage of Nd in all grains is higher than that in misch metal.
