Abstract: | Mössbauer studies of splat cooled amorphous Fe75P15C10 foils show that, in “as prepared” samples, frozen-in stresses cause the magnetization to be essentially in the plane of the foil. However, by annealing at 600°K for one hour, the magnetization becomes predominantly perpendicular to the surface (>85%). Thus, splat cooled materials may support the formation of bubble domains. Further annealing in the presence of a magnetic field does not increase the relative magnetization perpendicular to the surface. |
