Anomalous temperature dependence of magnetization in polycrystalline Fe65Ni35 alloy

Magnetization at 0.3 and 140 Hz (0–10 Oe) and magnetic relaxation measurements were carried out in detail in the temperature range between 4.2 and 300 K for a polycrystalline Fe₆₅Ni₃₅ alloy. The typical temperature T_g and the magnetic field H_g which correspond to the anomalous temperature in χ-T curves and inflection field in σ-H curves, respectively, are summarized and a H-T diagram is obtained. A strong magnetic relaxation is observed along the H_g-T line. The temperature dependence of H_g is discussed by the thermal activation of 180° domain wall which is pinned strongly by the antiferromagnetic-like clusters below T_g. It is find that H _g is a linear function of T .
